Body Rhythm for Small Puppets

In this clip, we'll talk about rhythm styles in small puppets. We just thought about different kinds of people with rhythm styles like ballet dancer. What would this puppet look like if I treated him like a ballet dancer? Lightness. If I thought of him as sumo wrestler, I would do different kinds of movements. In fact, I would spend a lot more time on his legs. Heavier. The other thing we looked at is we tried a paranoid business man, which I think of as very straight up and down, but looking around a lot. Sharp looking. Consider using those in your small puppets too.
