Camera Angles

 

The Animation has two camera angles. I marked the position of the tripod legs on the floor with some masking tape. The yellow circles reppresent the frontal position and the red circles are for the side shoots.By marking the floor I am able to switch from one position to an other without altering significantly the image, and therefore maintain continuity within the sequence.

 

Green puppets eye making

                      

On the left you can see the shape of the eye that as been be stiched to my character (right). I made my eye with fabric filled in with wadding: I intend to use a pin shaped pupil so I can move it according to where the puppet is looking.

Four Fingers

                         

I am pleased with my puppets four finger hand. I am working on his right hand at the moment. As you can see from the photo above, the internal structure of the fingers is made of thin wire which has been securely attached to a metal loop in its hand main body. My next step is knitting a finger shaped pattern that will be then carefully stiched over the metal wire.
