@jazzdaddycriticisms70496 жыл бұрын
Actually, the puppet design itself in this particular form is harder to work with than the solid puppets. The floppy ones, like this one, generally are more difficult to deal with because you need to evenly distribute your arm and find a way to keep hold and have so many subtle nuances to make it work properly. However, most solid ones have two rods you hold onto which makes the weight distributed and make the movement easier to handle. So, I'd say this particular puppet design doesn't work as well. What REALLY makes it is the puppeteer because they can handle such a puppet SO WELL. Because they had all the subtleties, so much personality, so much movement. And the voice actor REALLY DID bring so much to the table. It's just wonderful.

@keyosuke6 жыл бұрын
My version of the plant voice is just like this, but the puppeteer is extremely good. To open and close the mouth that fast and that often means it must have been a very light plant puppet or the guy operating it was an Olympic endurance runner that happened to also participate in the weight lifting events.
@jazzdaddycriticisms70496 жыл бұрын
It has to be the puppeteer that made it work. Because this puppet is inheritely floppy. So, to make it work, you need a puppeteer that has an understanding of how regular puppetry works, then they have to be able to blow it up ten times the size.
@keyosuke6 жыл бұрын
My point exactly. This is an outstanding Audrey II puppeteer. The voice and singing are really good, but the movement is top of class.

This is hands down the best puppetry for Audrey II I have ever seen thus far!!!! Whoever is doing it gives the plant so much character and actually made me believe that it was ALIVE!!! Every movement of the head and roots are amazing and when the plant tapped his roots to the beat of the music, I was dying of laughter. If anyone ever does this show and becomes the puppeteer or the voice of Audrey, they need to see this video.

Ironically this Semour seems a bit too over the top. It's ok on its own for a comical character, but not really fitting his usual personality. Usually you can see the dilemma and turmoil he goes through, but in this version he's trying to capture too much of his goofy side, one more fitting for Anything Goes or something. At least Audrey II is still as delightfully evil as we can hope for her with her charisma and energy.

Ooh, clever puppet and puppeteering! Looks like he's sitting with his legs being the roots, so I'd guess that he uses his whole arm/arms to move the mouth up and down. Puppeteer head is in the top of the puppet and just naturally holds up the top part of the mouth, so really they only need to control the bottom mouth of the plant. Boy that's a lot of arm movement though. It's got to be exhausting.
