"I had such a blast with Michael's puppet course. As an actor, this is just another outlet of self expression. Not to mention, I'm a huge
fan of puppets and puppeteers. It
was fun learning specific tips, tricks, and fun-damentals for
performing with puppets in front of the camera. It's a guaranteed good time!"
- Jason Marsden (Actor - Step by Step)
”Puppet class was the highlight of my week. Michael made the atmosphere so open and relaxed I was always eager to try something new. The lessons
are valuable
not only for on-camera skills, but voice acting, movement control and performance for TV. The best part about puppet
class was how much fun it is to pretend to be a puppet! ”

"Michael's class has taught me a foundation of puppetry that I use every time I lift my arm.“ His class has influenced not only how I puppeteer,
but how I design, build, improvise, and perform. I cant imagine progressing in this field without it. If you are serious about improving your
puppetry, Michael's class is what you are looking for. As in any learned artistic skill, (music, fine art, and puppetry) there are foundations
that must be
mastered. Michael teaches those foundations and the rest is only limited to your 'puppetry dedication'. After
Michael's foundation
course, I could watch the greats, and see that foundation at work. Whether by group class, or our individual workshops, I go home overflowing
with new concepts, techniques, and ideas to grow from. Thanks so much Michael!! I can't recommend this course any more to you. It
has taught me
a broad foundation of puppetry techniques that I can build from. Thanks Michael!
