Prop Design - Construction - Marionette
The goal of this project was to create a fully functioning Marionette. The process involved exploring historical marionette construction techniques and determining the best mechanics for the specific movement for this puppet. The greatest challenge in this process involved specific movement, balance and counterbalance. Materials used include wood, foam, fabric, mechanical parts and string.
About Me
I have always displayed artistic tendencies, mainly in my immense interest for artistic craftsmanship. My hands constantly want to mold, shape, and construct the clouds of ideas that lurk in my head and make them visible to the eye. To be an artist, one must display a strong and solid character that is confident but also flexible enough to be willing to accept the ever-present changes in life. Though my principles are grounded, I recognized the importance of versatility in my attitude. Life is governed by dynamics and energy, and I am able to shift my perspectives and see life in all its beauty, which is important for keeping in tune with artistic sensibilities. If I want to continue to give the world ideas needed to fuel its progress, I must be willing to accept the changes that come with it. The above-mentioned factors, however, cannot exist without determination. To be an artist, I believe the major driving forces to be determination and passion. I am determined to see my ideas to come to life without being impeded. I have a deep passion for what I do and strive everyday to perfect my craft. I always come into work thinking of ways that I can make myself better, and how I can utilize my talents to take the project I'm working on to a new level.
