I've been noodling about the concept of MCYT as digital puppetry for awhile. It finally occurred to me, largely because of Real Life, to actually search up "digital puppetry" and that led me down a rabbit hole leading to this conclusion: if MCYT is digital puppetry, then it's the subgenre of machinima. Real Life, then, would be a blend of machinima and motion-capture puppetry. Incidentally, motion-capture puppetry apparently encompasses V-tubing, which I should have considered.
I'm completely fascinated with this idea for some reason. And also, the technological and logistical nightmare that would be involved aside, I can't help wondering what Cleo's V-tuber would've looked like while they were playing Real Life.
I hug merlin to sleep in all honesty... heh, but him sleeping with his eyes open is unsettling at 3am soooo I made him wallys sleeping mask!!! Now we can peacefully sleep!! Epy niron is such a cute thought >u<
been meaning to draw the Bill Baird marionette of Tigger used in Shirley Temple’s Storybook: Winnie-the-Pooh (1960) for a bit now, so here it is as my first piece of the year 🧡
I’ve never made a puppet before, but I’ve got plans!!! I’ve found where all the materials are, have the funds to do so, the biggest issue is time! But it IS everyone’s favorite puppeteer and comedian. Rolfe Dewolfe❗️
