    Here is a cool video promoting the Puppets Up! festival in Almonte, Ontario, CANADA. Almonte is just outside of Ottawa. The festival runs August 12th and 13th, 2006. You can see the video and read more about the festival below.

    The puppeteer is Matt Ficner, who is a very talented puppeteer with Henson credits.

    Enjoy.

    Hi GabeFirestone,

    I don't think there too much planning with the content of the video. I think it was mostly improv and an attempt to use a puppet to bring awareness to the festival, and to see a bit on the town.

    That's just what I think though.

    That's the thing about improv, some parts work for some and not for others. I guess that's true even with scripted works too. I enjoyed some parts more than others myself.
