Video Monitors
Unlike traditional stage performance, video puppetry provides the performer with immediate knowledge of exactly what the audience will see. But working with monitors is a skill that takes time to acquire. Whether you’re looking at television puppetry, webcast performance, or simply recording clips to use in children’s church, you’re going to need to know how to use monitors.
This blog is based on my “Working With Video Monitors” hands-on workshop presented at the 2006 I-Fest and is designed to encourage you to try new things, unleash possibilities, explore limitations, and discover the benefits of developing new skills. Grab a puppet and a camera and have fun!
