Life and death appeared to me ideal bounds, which I should first break through - Mary Shelley

Moving your puppet creations around will not be sufficient to be entertaining.  You must inhabit the characters.

The puppets should have lives, stories, habits, gestus, personality.

As such, each team should take a post and should make a series of posts that bring their character to life in words.  

You will need to respond to each other's posts.  Agree and change details.  Develop each other's points.

Prizes available for best responses.

  1. So ( Claiming this blog lol ;) ) just outlining the name for our puppet: it will be Warhol. As you can probbaly guess it is based on Andy Warhol, when creating the idea in class it the hair began then it took his form. Generally because we are basing the puppet on such a colourful character. Our puppet can be uniquely coloured, in a pop art style.

  3. liam i reaserch that guy and i did know his work but didnt relaize it was him if u know what i mean :")
    but for our puppet gestus i think that every know and then his hand gestus should be scrathing hi head for no reason and have personality of him seeming like he always confused but he is actually really intelligant.

  4. I like it jess a ambiguous action, I like I think the colours should be really bright. If only we could plaster his death of a celebrity work plastered all over him.

  6. So to summarise, our personality is of a clever man who looks confused. Coloured with bright colours and celberity magazines. The reason for them is due to Warhols prints on celberity. All this from drawing a puppets ( which for some reason I feel like calling a robot) which had similar hair to him.

  7. i like what we have for oue bunraku puppet and the moment such as the name and personality but u was was thinking what type of life will he lead and what type of habit he will have.
    so i was thinking warhols habit could be:
    him always scrating his head could be one
    opr always got his hnad on his chin as he thinking cause he is always confused.

    liam this could also be what our bunraku puppet is like and life he will lead after he come to life but you dont have to agree with it i just want ur opinion and if you dont like it we can change it
    Name: warhol
    Point of View: dosent have one he always confused
    Taste in Clothing: suits
    Humor: Warhol "coughs" at funny jokes
    Interests: art
    Job/ Pastime: wants to become a budding artist
    Pet Phrases: "Three cheers for Paintings !"
    Warhol is a very down to earth person. He thrives on look at different pieces of art and seeing different celebritys
