This video was so helpful. I'm writing a story about a traveling puppet theater and needed to know how to describe stringing a marionette.

@kristinehall1 3 года назад

Your teaching style is spot on! I have thoroughly enjoyed every video you've made. I'm planning to make marionettes for my grandchildren for Christmas. They will love them! Thank you!

Great Tutorial. Easy to understand especially using the two camera angles. Excited to see more in the future.

@puppetsbyarlee 4 года назад

Thanks for watching! My goal is to add more marionette how-to videos to RU-vid. The art form of marionette puppetry is in danger of disappearing unless more puppeteers are given the opportunity and knowledge to try it.

@@puppetsbyarlee Nice goal. I can't wait to learn more about the art.

What is the toggle for from the aeroplane control build video? Please and thank you ❤

@carmennichting8468 Год назад

I have a question.... the 'possible elbow' string spot underneath the controller, why is there this white 'tube' hanging there?..... I mean, what is the purpose?

@puppetsbyarlee 11 месяцев назад

It can be used for a toggle of a single long running string that you can use for elbows.

@dosh943 3 года назад

Thanks so much for the turtorial. Great! You had two controlers, it looked like you had them tied together. How much space died you have between each "airplane" contoller and what did you use to connect them. Best Tuturoial on the Subject.

@puppetsbyarlee 3 года назад

About an inch. Enough to fit your index finger through.

Thank you Arlee. What type of Dacron fishing line would you recommend? 20 lbs, 50 lbs, 80 lbs?

@puppetsbyarlee 3 года назад

30 - 200 lbs depending on the brand. The kind I recommend in the description I like to get 30-50 lb. I like a thicker string that will be less likely to get caught in string traps.

@corinneshand2692 Год назад

Eyelets on head... Just wondering, how far up from ears, should they be please🤔✌️☺️ I ❤your videos, by the way Xxx Thank you so much ✌️

@puppetsbyarlee Год назад

It will be different for every shape of puppet head. Experiment by holding the puppet with your fingers on either side until you find a balance point where the eye are focused. Then, put your screw eyes there. Good luck!

@reginadiehlmann465 2 года назад

I have added the strings to the puppet but he will not look side to side or down. What am I doing wrong. Can you do a video on why strings may not be working right. I can not find a video on that anywhere. Even looking else where nothing to be found on different issues with control other than tangled strings. Can you please help me out?

@puppetsbyarlee 2 года назад

If your screw eyes on the side of the head are too high or too low from the center hemisphere of the head, it may make it so that the head is not responding. Also, be sure you are depressing the shoulder strings to have the puppet look downwards in order for the side to side head movement to be possible. In addition see my video "How to Puppeteer a Marionette: standing and eye focus."

@reginadiehlmann465 2 года назад

I found the problem, the hair of my puppet was keeping the head from looking down. I was so up set to find I had to change the hair style. He had a warrior hair style, now it just a man bun. I want to thank you for all the help with making my puppet. I still have alot of work to do on him. Also I need lots of practice moving him. He walks like a drunk Bambi. Lol

@reginadiehlmann465 2 года назад

When I am done with him I will send a picture. Again thanks!

@Unteroffizier 3 года назад

May i know where to buy the strings, what to look out for when buying the strings, like what type of strings should we buy? Is there specific strings made for marionettes? or any strings will do?

@puppetsbyarlee 3 года назад

Braided deep sea fishing line in black works best. There are several companies that make it. There is link for Hercules fishing line in the description, which is what I like to use. Buy 30 - 70 pound line. Honestly any string can work, choose something that is strong enough to support the weight of your puppet while being thin enough that it's hard to see from the audience.

@Unteroffizier 3 года назад

what is the bottom plane first outlet for ? (the one above the arms outlet). is it to move head up ?

@puppetsbyarlee 3 года назад

I think you mean the metal clip on the top bar which holds the leg bar. I have a playlist on how to puppeteer a marionette, that may show the control in more detail.

@NellGeisslingerOfficial 2 года назад

Dear wonderful Arlee -- I'm leaning on your videos big time in the construction of a marionette right now, and wondering how you add the eyelet to the "butt plate" -- I've used your pelvis tutorial, and I'm a little stumped as to how to screw the eyelet in without messing up the crotch piece, if that makes sense. Any suggestions? I ADORE your videos, thank you so much for making them! Nell

@puppetsbyarlee Год назад

Use a drill and make a hole first. Then, dip the screw eye in wood glue and screw it in. Let it dry overnight.

I cut the strings to the marine hunt out of frustration from trying to detangle it. And I just have a simple cross for a holding device. But I don't know how to restrain it exactly and wondering if you have a video with a more simple approach. Thank you

@serenemachine9110 Год назад

I'll be 50 in less than a month and I'm building my first marionette. Your videos have been a big help. I always do stuff my own way but your videos inspire me. I've always thought marionettes and puppets in general were magical and I've recently become interested in doing it myself. I hope you are still making videos and teaching the world your craft because I'm going to be visiting your channel a lot.

@puppetsbyarlee Год назад

That is so amazing to hear!!! Thanks so much. I worry about the disappearance of the marionette puppetry art form because it is so hard to find out how to do it. I think it's important that you are choosing to learn this craft. Happy building and performing. If possible please post, I'd love to see your work.
