What's the best camera set up for a solo puppeteer?

Last year I was asked to make a quick video about the three different camera set-ups I have used to film during lockdown. These are not the best rigs that money can buy - in fact quite the opposite, these are simply the three different set-ups I could cobble together during lockdown to solve my problem. Each variation has its positive and negative points... I still use all three over a year later as each has a different strong point.
If you're a puppeteer and have used a different camera set-up during lockdown, let me know what you did in the comments.

Nice video, good setups. Is it always Christmas in Hellyerland?

haha - I filmed the walk-around last October in the run-up to filming Christmas bits. I just found the video on my hard drive the other day and figured I may as well release it... better late than never 😂
