It’s been almost seven years since we first saw the amazing puppet designing skills of Barnaby Dixon. With more videos over the years, we’ve also come to appreciate his ability to operate them in such a way as to trick our minds into seeing them as real characters separate from the puppeteer. This is because Dixon spent years studying anatomy and movement in order to make stop-motion animated films. The puppets came later because he was looking for a way to save time! And since he had no background in puppetry, he was free to think outside the box. In this video, we learn what goes into Dixon’s puppets, in designing them, building them, and bringing them to life. -via Digg
