Join SFBAPG for a virtual workshop tour and puppet building demonstration with Swazzle.
The puppet company Swazzle co-owners Sean and Patrick Johnson will give SFBAPG members an exclusive virtual tour of the Swazzle Puppet Studio. Participants will get an exclusive peek behind the curtain of the workshop that built puppets for Crank Yankers, Kidding, Waffles and Mochi and more! Sean and Patrick will help demystify the puppet building process as they show the tools and materials every puppet builder should have.
Following the tour Sean and Patrick will lead guild members in a special puppet building demonstration where they will illustrate an essential and often overlooked step in the puppet building process. Participants will learn how to turn a 2-D puppet design into a 3-D foam puppet mock-up. Understanding this process is the key to creating original characters out of patterned sheet foam.
