Same here! I wish so badly he was on some public forum so I could tell him how much he's influenced and inspired me. I got to meet him last year, but I was so star-struck that I couldn't get out very many words and kind of just got my autograph and my picture and moved along. If you somehow...

I wouldn't be able to afford a monthly thing, but I would definitely love the opportunity to pay a little chunk of change every once in a while to get some exposure and see how it affects my view count. Mostly because right now my viewership is basically nonexistent, haha.

So I found an Android emulator and got to poke around. My channel was automatically added too, and all my videos are there except for one or two. Maybe they always shave off a little? I don't really know. Or maybe it's still automatically curating and they'll all be added eventually...

That's bizarre! You would think they would make absolutely sure they were getting kid-friendly content before telling all those parents to put their full trust in the app! I just wish I had a smart device so I could fiddle with the thing too.

This is the first time I've heard about it. Does it just automatically go through everything on Youtube and grab what it wants, or did you have to submit somewhere? I can't seem to find any info on that.

Awesome! Now I can get my fix! Haha.

Look up James Kemp. He does really great work. I'll second Crazy Chris that Jarrod Boutcher does great work, and Jonathan Little is awesome as well. Luna's puppets is probably the best for big, full-bodied puppets at affordable prices. Like them on Facebook and you'll even get crazy good...

I listened to the station for a while maybe a week or so ago, but now it won't work on any of my devices. Audio skips and lags and the songs run together. I've tried both links, too, over a few days. Is anyone else having problems? Last night one of the sites was down for maintenance/server...

I will! ;)

Thanks! I'm taking a shine to Georgie as well. I've got an episode I'm uploading soon that's got some good Georgie moments.

For sure! Weirdos unite! Haha. The internet's really the only place I can talk with fellow puppeteers. I can't even say I've ever met another true puppeteer in person before, other than shaking Dave Goelz's hand at a Muppet Movie screening a few months ago. It's not a very common skill, so...

Totally, it comes and goes around here, doesn't it? I know there are a lot of puppeteers out there, but they're all spread out among Muppet sites, other puppetry forums, some Facebook pages, and other stuff. It would be great if there were one great big puppetry community that acted as the...

Thanks, I'll give it a look!

I've considered split screen, though that would only work for certain videos, as sometimes the background is important to the performance. Or at the very least it's nice to switch it up. I plan on making more animated backgrounds. You're totally right about the performer/filmmaker thing. I...

Thanks for taking the time to give me some feedback! I really appreciate it! Unfortunately ditching the chroma key isn't an option, as it's the only way to actually have multiple characters onscreen at once. I have been thinking about getting some backdrops for when there's only one puppet...

Oh my gosh you're SO right! The things we've got available to us now are just unbelievable. The fact that I could start even a simple a show like mine and potentially distribute it to the entire world for only a couple thousand dollars is just insane. It's a great time to be in the...

I hear you brother, it never seems to end! Too bad some things you just can't cheap out on. I've been learning that over the last year, and I'm glad, because now that I've allowed myself to invest in the show I've got a pretty good-looking product. The old me would have scoffed at the money...

I've thought about that actually, but I haven't made a move yet. I'm trying to find out how cheap I can go without compromising image quality. (After buying the XF100 I'm hesitant to spend much more, haha.) But I definitely need to give it a try.

I think the sound turned out great in your show! Sound quality is way more important than most people realize. It doesn't matter how awesome a video is if the sound is terrible! When I mentioned neon colors I meant in my puppets. I had two puppets built for the show, one a vivid neon orange...

Right now I'm using a Canon t3i. I bought a Canon XF100, but I need to learn how to use it better before I start using it for the show. It's pretty frustrating, actually. The t3i has a pretty terrible resolution; it's technically 1080p because that's what the file it creates is, but the...
