WOJTAL



about this episode


On Puppet Tears, we love to get into the nitty gritty about the grind of a working puppeteer. Who better to join us in that conversation than James Wojtal!? James is a puppet builder who has worked with The Jim Henson Company on Bear in the Big Blue House, Mopatop's Shop, international Sesame Street co-productions, Happytime Murders, and so much more.

We talk with James about coming up as a puppet builder, the importance of budgeting your time, and what it's like to work in a professional workshop environment. Don't miss this exciting window into the world of professional puppetry and find out about the alternate ending to John Tartaglia's ImaginOcean!
