By Raymond Cole


Puppetry is a very interesting play and is usually done theatres and other venues suitable for live shows.

They do their best with the help of their production team to realize our favorite cartoon characters that we only see on televisions. Children become excited when seeing these performances because at last, they have seen their favorites.

That is why theatrical actors and actresses exert extra effort to internalize their assigned personality so that they could effectively project it in from of their audiences. Internalizing the personality of the cartoon is not an easy process because these people underwent years of training just to master the techniques in acting. They have to satisfy the expectations of the public not because it is their job to do it, but also because they love doing it.

It does not only apply to these actresses and actors. These techniques are also highly applicable to puppeteers. This term refers to people who serve as the controllers of the puppets. Puppeteers undergo certain trainings to boost their confidence and improve their acting skills.
