All week we have been constructing interactive 'singing' sock puppets.
Firstly we had to choose a genre of music that would be good for making a puppet. Our group chose the Glam Rock genre, and we created mood boards, thinking KISS, metal, make-up and big tongues!
We began by creating design ideas for the puppet. We decided on creating the puppet in the style of Tim Burton's illustrations, big head and thin body, making the puppet look scary.
We allocated jobs and I thought I'd construct the body, which was great for me as it gave me valuable textiles and sewing practice, and I learnt new skills as a result.
The final out come is fantastic. The actual puppet looks very well constructed and looked great on camera when filming the video. Watching the video it's great to see everything come together: the backing track, the set, the electronics and the puppet all combined to make it sing in it's very own music video!
