Digital Puppetry

Notes:

Digital puppetry is a technique used to create and control virtual characters in a digital environment. It involves the use of software and hardware tools to manipulate digital models of characters in real-time, allowing the puppeteer to control the character’s movements and expressions as if they were a physical puppet.

Digital puppetry is used in a variety of contexts, including film, television, video games, and live performances. In film and television, digital puppetry is often used to create characters that are difficult or impossible to portray using traditional puppetry techniques, such as fantastical creatures or animals. In video games, digital puppetry is used to create and control in-game characters and avatars. In live performances, digital puppetry is used to create interactive shows and experiences.

Digital puppetry requires the use of specialized software and hardware, such as motion capture systems, 3D animation software, and controllers or input devices. The puppeteer uses these tools to manipulate the digital character in real-time, typically by moving their own body or limbs in a way that is reflected in the character’s movements and expressions.

  • Animatronic puppetry: A type of puppetry that uses animatronics, or mechanically-operated figures, to create the illusion of life in a puppet. Animatronic puppets can be controlled manually or through the use of computer programs.
  • Automated puppetry: A type of puppetry that uses automated or mechanical means to control the movements of a puppet. This can include the use of robotics, computers, or other mechanical devices to manipulate the puppet.
  • Avatar puppeteering: A type of puppetry in which a human performer controls the movements and expressions of a digital character, or avatar, in a virtual environment. This can be done through the use of motion capture technology, virtual reality headsets, or other specialized tools.
  • Avateering is the act of controlling or manipulating the movements and expressions of a digital avatar, or virtual character, in a virtual environment. Avateering is often done through the use of motion capture technology, virtual reality headsets, or other specialized tools.
  • Puppet (puppets): A figure, often made of fabric, wood, or other materials, that is manipulated by a puppeteer to create the illusion of life. Puppets can take many different forms, including marionettes, hand puppets, and rod puppets.
  • Puppetry: The art of manipulating puppets to create the illusion of life. Puppetry can be performed in a variety of contexts, including stage shows, films, and television programs.
  • Puppeteer (puppeteers): A person who manipulates puppets to create the illusion of life. Puppeteers can work with a variety of different types of puppets, including marionettes, hand puppets, and rod puppets.
  • Puppeteering: The act of manipulating puppets to create the illusion of life. Puppeteering can be performed by a single person or by a team of puppeteers working together.
  • Robotic puppets: Puppets that are controlled by robotics or other mechanical means, rather than being manipulated directly by a puppeteer. Robotic puppets can be programmed to perform specific movements or actions.
  • Speaking puppet: A puppet that is able to produce sound, either through the use of a built-in speaker or by being connected to an external sound system.
  • Talking book: A book that includes audio recordings of the text, allowing the book to be “read” aloud through the use of a playback device.
  • Telepractice: The use of technology, such as videoconferencing or teleconferencing, to deliver medical, therapeutic, or other services remotely.
  • Virtual puppetry: A type of puppetry in which a digital character, or avatar, is controlled in a virtual environment, typically through the use of motion capture technology or other specialized tools. Virtual puppetry can be used to create interactive shows or experiences, or to control in-game characters in video games.
