Bro moved the camera so fast😂
You got talent even if nobody cared about it
I'm just amazed to see how generously you teach every single technique you know...so proud of you Adam...hope you're starting to feel better after the surgery...you're on thoughts and I hope you get back to your normal life really soon...
He is such an asset to this community, it's wild.
You have awoken something in me Adam. Puppets on the brain. I made my first puppet off your tutorials. Used plastic grocery bags balled together and taped up to get my pattern. He looks quite barbaric compared to my second. Used your free pattern and created Priscilla Primrose. All I want to do anymore is build puppets, then build more! As soon as I have a few I feel are camera quality I have plans for a channel. Thank you for all your guidance, inspiration and knowledge.
me: minding my own business.
this video: here’s how to make moving puppet eyes
me: now I want to make a puppet.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Same lol
Ye me to
Great video! The light was a little too bright to see the details on the ping pong balls, but I’m gaining a lot of confidence for building.
Eric Sweetman I was thinking was just me 😞 I can’t see the details in the ping pong too
Same
Yes! Awesome video! Thank you so much and great job!
But definitely, I recommend using zebra stripes to avoid over-exposure.
Thanks again! I just subscribed!
Zeferino Rincon whyd u say that in replies
No one else like
By the way Adam, I have had great success removing the ping-pong ball logos with nail polish remover. Usually comes off in seconds.
GabeTube - Channel One nice!
Rubbing alcohol will remove them too
He is so cool. Your lips move and it doesn't matter because he is so animated. Absolutely love it!
I’m a puppeteer.
Puppeteers are not neccasarily ventriloquists.
I’m making a fat killer clowns from outer space mask and need the eyes to move so this helps a lot thanks for being a gorgeous teacher! 🌸✨
Adam YOU DA MAN! 👍🏻
I really appreciate the great video production quality and your clear step-by-step explanations! Your videos really are so useful and informative to us out there who are building our puppets! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you for your support!
@@PuppetNerd Hello, and I want to understand how you did that to make your eyelids move from the puppet xd, is that I do not know English, and that I use the translator so that you understand what I say xd
You sir, are a great teacher. Well done and thank you!
Happy to help! Thanks!!
So to do 2 seperate eye movements...you have to do 2 mechs? Thank you for this video, btw.
Yeah.
So much character in those puppets. Love the different examples.
Also, the bat and the dust guy are so great!!!
I love how you alway say "ok"
You’re videos are the most informative, authentic, fantastic thing on the internet. Thank you 🙏 😊
As someone that makes tutorials, I appreciate how well this is put together and thanks for the tip on the gaffer tape, I'm sure that'll be something I'll use in the future! Hah, and that shirt's fantastic!

Thank you so much for this. I have been trying to find a simple way to do this specific thing for years, but never found such a simplified tutorial.
Great video Adam. I’ve always been scared of making moving eyes, but you’ve made it so easy and understandable!

I'm a newbie to the puppeteer community. Retired a few years ago and decided I wanted to put my music to video using puppets. Not making any puppets yet but you never know what the future brings. For now I'm working solo and doing all the activities involved in making a video. Prop man, cameraman, puppeteer you get the drift. Hoping to finish my 1st video by summer time. Thanks for the informative video...
Sweet!
Dude, I totally love your videos!
I watched this while stitching up my snoof I used your pattern for! PS. This is my first puppet and snoofs are amazing beginners
I've been wanting to make a puppet for a while, I have a lot of designs but I'm going to watch a few tutorials first, I don't want to mess up >~
Amazing!! Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge!
Happy to help!!!
These videos are amazing! Thank you so much 🤗
Happy to help!!!
Fantastico!!!!
OMG I'm so sorry to hear the news about Adam. As a two times cancer survivor myself, I fully understand what you all must be going through. Positivity is a great healer I found but love and healing coming from across the miles
Well I fell in love with the last monster. So cute! If I only could buy it! If he ever want to move to Sweden and entertain a bunch of kids please Adam let me know!
Very nice, I will try this👍
This is fantastic! Thanks so much for sharing your creativity and ideas!
Happy to help!

I saw one of these in my feed and clicked on it. Now I am down a rabbit hole and I want to make puppets.
So useful ! I want to try that one on my next puppet ! If it has eyes...

"Let me put some pupils on there, that will make it easier to see"
Sir you are a gift to humankind.
I've only just come across your channel having had you recommended by another puppet builder. Already seen most of your build videos and they are great. Thanks for taking the time to produce them.
Happy to help! Let me know if you have any questions!

😂😂😂
Oh that’s how Oscar the grouch works!
I’m so excited to get started! I’m headed to the craft store tomorrow! Only because I lack the foam.
Sweet!
Roadie here. It's still the best option, but gaffe absolutely can leave residue under hot summer conditions.
You are super cool! thanks for the video :D
I might see if I can do individual winkers and I am going to try to make my own pattern you have been a huge inspiration and help to me so thank you
Happy to help! Can’t wait to see what you do!
That first Puppet head reminded me of those Grouches I see on Sesame Street!
Adam, words can not express how inspirational you are. I think I have found something to do . (Retired)
tried to make this on my own without actually looking into any references, because that's who i am as a person lmaooo but i gave up quicker than i might usually and found this! thanks!!
18:20 Cool Mech! I wanna know how to do that one. Congratulations for your videos Adam. They are very helpful.
Thank you sir:)
Happy to help!
I think that’s what Animal’s or Oscar’s eye mech is like
I like your videos they're very detailed and easy to understand
Thanks so much!
