Do you need a mentor? So many people try to do everything themselves. A mentor can not only coach, encourage and motivate you, but also shorten the learning curve.

In this week’s episode, we discuss the subject of mentors. What makes a good mentor? How to find someone you trust. How a mentor relationship works. If you have ever wished you could have personal help with this art, pay close attention to this episode.

Does your puppet look good to you? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The real question should be, does your puppet look good to the audience? They may not see it like you do.

There are a ton of ugly puppets out there. Don’t settle for one because it’s cheap. Just because it may be all you could afford, or made by a “name” in the business, doesn’t mean it isn’t hurting you. How? We’ll talk about it today.
