Oh hi! I'm Pam...
...and I'm a puppeteer, filmmaker, and comedian. That's me up there
I made a film called Bunny Love you can find on Amazon Prime and have created lots of award-winning comedy sketches.
I've worked in many puppetry styles for the stage and for TV – shadow puppetry, marionettes, hand puppets, Muppet style, and more!
You can see more of my work over yonder.
What experience do I need before taking the Writing Puppet Films course?
None at all! This course is for the total beginner who is just getting into puppetry and the experienced puppeteer.
Both will take away plenty of new ideas and perspectives from this course.
How long does it take to complete?
The video material is 30 minutes long. There is bonus material like puppetry videos, books to read, and worksheets too.
I like to keep it simple and concise, and I give you actionable steps to follow afterwards.
Do I need any special materials?
You can write a script in a Word or Google doc. If you want to use screenwriting software, I cover that too.
Can the skills be applied to other forms of writing?
Absolutely.
I created this course from basic screenwriting principles that I learned and I apply my knowledge of writing and making puppet films over my ten years in puppetry.
