Watch how Barbara gives characterization to each of her puppets, providing each puppet an identity through the puppets clothes, to voice and even life story. In this episode we meet, Chad and Chief Run-Amumak.

Video Transcription

Chad is the boyish wig. He has a tuxedo on here, the tuxedo that we made, not as nice as the one that we bought with the dark shoes. Sometimes I take the head off you are going to see at another time that the puppet production head that we used with its body. The one under the heart, the liver, and the stomach he has a white behind the eyes too. Sculptured nose and sculptured ears. I got a hat for him, there is two here, one for me and one for him and if you really want to get dressed up put white gloves on. Make him sing all kinds of Broadway songs I made this little ordinary cap back in the days before I come all over the place and made this little droll. We will talk about props later on but props are really important here is a little jacket to make him look more natural and he has got a little boot type shoes. Sometimes I pin there like together in the back because so the legs will not go halter scatter everyway. He looks like a little guy. He has a little red mouth on the inside and kind of a little innocent look about. You might want to get the puppets on my types, you can make a head like this and you can decide what puppet face can look like after you. I think im have done that. I really like two front of my collage. He has this great big face. A good sculptured face a big face. He is big a lot of carve right there on his lips. And, a dimple right here and then one here and here. Wooshy eyebrows, I made this. I said both of it have Indian braids you can buy this catalogs where you can buy Indian wig. Put the three strips together then you braid them with spray net. I thought that a long time ago, 15 years ago at an Indian reservation. I made this costume for the girls when they were little The patterns in your store or just put a trim. You got bells on into something that I have found at your hotel and bead and both market sense. I saw him into the sitting position and cross his arm and pin them together that you have to have patience. Monkey, he is a little around crazy. I hate concert but my Puppet and I looked at them in the side. What should I do? What gorgeous what would they have and what characteristics should I make. They have already through the years at the belt, an Indian belt. Now his wife came later, I wonder they came really ugly. I had a baby and that little running nose and I return. I got great big nose and I put wires in her hairs so it would look like picking on something that her bricks would stick out I can put it down to. I got unlimited brain, let us get Theresa’s as you can buy and in craft where the Indian headband is needed which she got big nose. You do not want it to look uglier do not put any white in the eyes. She has two little teeth here and they are made of little bead but they were really look good like teeth. They are beautiful girls but the other one has a dimple right here and right here and an eyelid. There is going at the school it goes right across the head and then the wig can cover that up. When I close I made this start again here near the door and last in last. Let us got too busy that I put an entrance are along there. She had Indian market in that. They got this little shampoos which of them back and I have to move to the side line when I got my hand in her. I got a lot more puppets that will make him that they will him on the different tape and we want to see the other one Brooklyn because they are the one that I am putting together as they go along. They are very nice today here with you today and I hope you enjoy this characterization of puppet and central equip. Thank you, good-bye. I enjoy being here with you and I hope you have learned something.
