Hi! I want to follow Puppetnerd’s no sew tutorial for my first proper puppet. He uses upholstery foam from a couch and I don’t have that, am i better off buying something like this or a roll?
thanks everyone, i feel so lost but im excited to start!

Hello internet,

Thanks in Advance,

Might have to rehome the second one soon

Poor people that love dragon puppets

The Eulenspiegel Puppet Theatre in small town West Liberty, Iowa, has been bringing storytelling, culture, and art to all ages for over 50 years.

I won last month's Production Crate 10 second VFX contest :)

Lovers of Henson! Here’s a Labyrinth parody sketch made using Boglins puppets (they are made by former Henson creature shop puppet designers)

So I’ve recently gotten into making muppet style puppets and I’d like to try my hand at making a replica.

I know it’s ambitious, but I’d really like to try my hand at making Dr. Teeth over the next couple of months after I finish my current project.

I’d really appreciate any advice or tips or suggestions anyone has for success!

Thanks in advance!

Hey all puppet lovers who like to dance 👯‍♀️ There will be a puppet meet-up Thursday at 5:30 at Amp for Ahee! Bring your puppet and have a dance party 🥳

Hey everyone! I am brand new to this subreddit, and have only recently began my journey into the world of puppet making and had decided (as I am first and formally a filmmaker) to bring together the world of puppets with my storytelling.

I'm just here to share my work and the trailer for my latest puppet short film, and get any thoughts and opinions on the execution of the main characters.

I spent around a month making them and they were incredibly fun to make, totalling 9 puppets over 3 different styles, the 3 lead puppets, 1 extra skeleton, 3 hand puppet skeletons and a custom Kraken puppet! With limited experience, but a high school sewing class, the pure enjoyment and determination to bring my script and characters to life made this one of the best projects I have ever worked on. I've added some stills from the film, but you can check out THE PUPPETS OF THE HIGH SEAS here! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7w7387QN6Lg 🏴‍☠️🪎

These are supposed to be the SAME CHARACTER which I find hard to believe.

I’m soon going to make a puppet of Pinky from the CreepyPasta “Faith Buddies”, but I’ve never made an actual Puppet before so this will probably be my first time! What Materials will I need? Will it be the same as making a Kermit puppet?

Help bring back The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance

Netflix cancelled one of the most beautifully crafted fantasy series after just one season, and it honestly broke a lot of us. The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance wasn't just another show—it was masterful storytelling, incredible puppet artistry, and a world so immersive it felt like home.

I started a petition asking Netflix and the production studios to reconsider and bring it back. For so many fans, Thra became a sanctuary during overwhelming times—a place where imagination and wonder still lived. The series had critical acclaim, a passionate fanbase, and so much more story to tell. Cancelling it after one season feels like cutting off a story mid-breath.

If this show meant something to you too, would you consider signing and sharing? What is it about The Dark Crystal that stuck with you? I'm genuinely curious what made it resonate so deeply for other people.
