Meet Frank, my banjo player paper puppet. We created this puppet for a TV3 segment at ECIB. The main theme was creating an extremely lightweight puppet, capable to be held down using needles even on extreme poses. For my character, I wanted to create a simple body shape and stick to raw materials, in this case cardboard newspaper and crepe paper.
The rig, consisting of only aluminium wire, is basically glued to the body with a glue gun.
