I want to create a puppet show that can show a traditional Korean story.
My original plan was to create masks and costumes but I changed my mind to actually show and tell about what I love and interested in. So I will choose one of the traditional fairy tales from my bookshelf or some Korean history book to create or interpret the story in my own way. Puppet will be drawn and created with some fabric. But my more clear idea is that I will draw them and cut out a lot of characters with different emotions and movements to make the show richer.
i might need some different kinds of sets too, so I think it will need some time to work on.
I could use my experience of creating a set and I also had the experience of making a shadow puppet show by myself last semester. This project will not be going to be a shadow puppet show but I think it may help to understand the process and how it works.
hours
- more than 8hours to create the puppets
- more than 6hours to create the background set
- least 2 hours to take video and edit them
Materials
- papers (various colors)
- maybe computer and printers
- glue and tapes etc
budget
- estimate 60dollars

I am planning to change my plan a little bit by using a z-brush or blender to create characters of the Korean folk tales instead of creating paper dolls of those. However, I wanted to make a background really realistic by using some real stuff that I can get around nature (such as plants and leaves).
I will use the Sculpey to create the figures. I had an experience of using Sculpey to create some creatures before. The theme will be the same as I said above.
So If I choose to do the Sculpey then my timeline will be ->
- one character needs at least more than a 5hours.
- I will create at least 3charactes so It may need more than 20- 25 hours to edit them, and clean up.
- After making all the characters than I will put some colors on them (each one need more than 2-3hours)
The estimated budget will be – > less then 90 dollars (but is Korean money)
