3DSC 204X - Puppet Workshop

Institution:

Massachusetts College of Art and Design

Subject:

Description:

This course is an introduction to the basics of movable dynamic figures (possibly human but possibly otherwise) in a variety of materials which respond to the action of the human hand (or, conceivably, other body parts). Through lectures, demonstrations and assigned projects, this course will cover the creation of a variety of movable joints. We will further concern ourselves with an assortment of means of providing and delivering motivation from our human students to our otherwise inanimate puppets, either directly or with such means as strings, rods or other connectors. Put simply, we want to make puppets, we want them to be movable and we want to make them move.
