Puppet Zone: Episode 7 - Puppet Backdrops
In this episode of the Puppet Zone, Greg will explore a variety of options for using backdrops for your puppet performances. From DIY to quality purchased items, you are bound to find an idea to work for you. Here are some resources to look at (I am not connected with any of these companies, they are simply the ones I’ve ordered from in years past or carry items similar to what I've used). This is my 10ft x 20ft Green screen https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07JVDDTG2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1 Cloth background, also carry paper backgrounds https://www.amazon.com/stores/KatePhotographyBackdrop/page/1B68311B-B2D5-4E0A-B880-5B0721B9AD42?ref_=ast_bln Here is one of the backdrop frames I have. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07FKP394M/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1 Here is the locker backdrop though I’m unsure this is the exact place mine was purchased, the picture is identical. It’s is made with a thin but strong vinyl (some sites call it tear resistant). https://www.amazon.com/AOFOTO-Backdrop-Depository-Photography-Background/dp/B07D1LXTTH/ref=sr_1_3?crid=BRQXCHVONC13&keywords=locker%2Bbackdrop&qid=1674059608&sprefix=locker%2Bbackdrop%2Caps%2C111&sr=8-3&th=1 Here is the canvas drop cloth that I make backdrops with.
