My interview with Dave Goelz, original Muppeteer for Splitsider
Puppeteering hurts. A lot. You have to compartmentalize the pain. Literally, you want to just whine, but you have to say, “I’ll whine later. Right now I’m gonna be this character.” And it does require extreme tension and extreme relaxation at the same time. You have to be incredibly tight and precise and also loose and spontaneous.
