Thank you for your great videos! My 10 year old grandson loves puppets and wants to make a sack puppet. I purchased your pattern and with no experience in making puppets I made my first test puppet in just a couple hours and it turned out great! My grandson loves the test one and can't wait till our weekend together to make a green long fur puppet. He calls in the evenings with plans on what kind of eyes, and how many fingers. If anyone is wanting to make one of these puppets it is well worth getting the pattern and following the video. It is easy and rewarding.
When I needed to make feet and legs, you did a tutorial at the perfect time. Want to guess what my next puppet project is going to be? Perfect timing again, thank you!!
Have you ever thought about hosting a contest, where viewers send in puppet character designs, and you make your favorite and send it to the winner? I think that would be really cool, and a lot of artists and doll customizers have done something similar.
Like Arlo here on RU-vid? Because I thought the same thing or at the very least, close friends. I know Adam also has a puppet named Arlo, who is a cute little blue monkey.
I have just found out about your channel and i love the work. Sorry to hear about your current situation, but I know im not alone in saying things will work out for the best! You're amazing!
Hi Adam. Thank you for a great tutorial. I’ve been practising ventriloquism for quite a while and would like to turn professional. I’d love to make my own characters, and your tutorial gives me the know how to do it. Fabulous explanations and very clear and simple to follow. Thank you. - Dawn 🌅
Adam, I will be thinking of you. I just discovered your chanel. It's so helpful, and so much fun. I have been going back and forth to a store called Curry's here in the UK, to explore was to set up filming for Tictock. Thank goodness there are friendly helpful people behind the service counter. And on my other hand, I am dreaming up my puppets, how I want to make them, and what kind of teaching/story. So , I'm getting support from you while I go thru the steps. It's exciting and a little bit on the edge. So, I thank you for your contributions. You're a great teacher. Enjoy your rest and I'm holding you in the light
Great to see a puppet enthusiast. I myself am in puppetry and like to have puppets like these. You should sell em. I would be your #1 customer! No seriously I would. Keep on teaching people like this. At least it's out there.
Ernie is not a sack puppet! He used the live hands that are separate from the body. Though I am sure you can still make a fun Ernie. Clothes seem more difficult for this kind of pattern but Monsterpiece Theatre always has Cookie in that suave suit so I probably just don’t know what I’m doing
the head before you attached it to the body is already adorable! i could see making one out of tribble-colored faux fur so you'd have a goofy little tribble puppet! XD
As a working artist who makes props I get all kinds of requests...you guessed it a life size puppet with live hands. I remember using you as a resource for a different kind of puppet a while back and had you in my "saves", I am so glad I did because you just saved the day sir. Thank you so much! I can't wait to get started. You are amazing! I think I can figure out my own patterns but I am totally going to grab a little Merch as a thank you. All the hearts!
dude!!! your videos and passion for the art in general are awesome. I recently got signed off work due to a bad accident involving my hand. started rewatching lots of muppet shows and various other things Henson workshop related from my youth and decided to buy a puppet. its been great fun. your videos and obviously playing around with an actual puppet have inspired me to do more. keep up the good work... when I have something I'm happy with I'll send you a clip.
Before the current world events, I had created my own sack puppet, from scratch pattern and all, but using Adams foam pattern for the head (though I did increase the size by about 10% due to my hands). Now I wish to bring my puppets out again, I miss showing them off in public.
awesome puppet build, another famous sack puppet besides cookie monster is telly monster i don't know why i'm thinking this, the blue puppet with the pink nose sorta looks like Grover
Can you please also do a tutorial on how to make a marionette, preferably one with a moving mouth? I would also love to see a tutorial on how to make sock puppets. You have lots of really cool puppet tutorials on your channel, but I wasn’t able to find any tutorials on these two types of puppets. Thank you 🙏🏻❤️
I kinda liked his scraggly look. I’m going to make my first hand puppet this week. I have most of the materials. Just waiting on some ping pong balls to make the eyes.
Hello, I purchased the big mack pattern and was hoping for a material list as in the snoof pattern. How much material is required to make this puppet? Thank you
That's a really good sack puppet, Adam it almost looks like Grover from Sesame Street, speaking of Grover you should actually try make a puppet of Grover because I'm learning the same thing myself
I'm making a short musical presentation next for the uni I go to and I wanted to make a puppet for a mouse and I was gonna go small but after watching this I thought, screw it, it'll be a big mouse.
When I think of glove hand puppets I think of this line from DHMIS 2 “Maybe time is a construct of human perception, and illusion created by- BEEP BEEP BEEP”
