It's all about delivery and motion/action

>blue berries are FUCKING PURPLE
finally someone said it.

If I remember correctly it has something to do with the way the human mind will fill in the gaps of images it sees. The brain sees something resembling a face and body language so the brain fills in exactly what is needed to perceive it as such. Meanwhile with an actual human with a real face and real body language we not only see those things but we also see the natural flaws it has where as our artificial creation had none

People just project shit onto simplified faces. It's not rocket science.

the static face is what makes tried expression funny
seeing a deadeyed kermit freak out is far more funnier than seeing a comedian freak out, it's silly and simple

The very energetic puppetry methods Jim Henson popularized are super expressive. Exaggerated motion picks up the slack left by simple designs, and your brain fills in the rest.

This works by virtue of having amazing puppeteer(s) and an amazing voice actor (I don't suppose they're the same person, but I might be wrong). Motion and voice combined is what makes Randy so lively and amazing.

it's incredible all the little mannersims that they manage to give him, far beyond most puppets i've seen.
the way he scratches the back of his head, or he will rest his hands on the desk and when he moves his hands will remain "gripping" the desk, all contribute to give him very naturalistic body language

Often they are the same person... it's harder to sync the mouth movements, otherwise.

Look I liked this video too but it is in noway even remotely related to Yea Forums at all so fuck off. I hate how modern Yea Forums is just /b2/.

Puppets have always be Yea Forums newfag.

You don't HAVE to be a brainlet to post here, but it helps.

Puppets are Yea Forums whether you like it or not.

Squares and rectangles. This board is for comics and cartoons, is this puppet a comic or a cartoon? You keep trying to move goalposts to this simulation thing but again this board isnt for simulations it's for comics and cartoons.

Nigga, did you make this just now?
Google image search ain't turnin' up nothin'.

If so, nice. But also what the fuck.

Are you the same user bitching about Godzilla being /m/ ?

Nah, I made it in a previous puppet thread, but it was only posted there. Don't know if many people noticed.

No but thanks for telling me you're autistic enough to be in two arguments on two boards at the same time, that's a pretty low standard for yourself.

You're not raising me anything, that's a comic. Randy is not a comic. What part of this is too hard for you to understand?

It's on Yea Forums silly.

Well if you clearly know everything, what board should puppet related media go to then?

Thanks for your redundant commentary sperg

>miss piggy in a bikini
That's a winner in my book.

>that's a comic
>HURR DERR GENIUS KNOWS EVERYTHING
Incredibly low standards on display again. I'm sorry I impressed you so much by identifying panelled media. But hey pro tip, if you can't figure out a board then Yea Forums is appropriate. Yea Forums is not /b2/ where you just dump shit you can't figure out.

Hey man, not the guy your replying to, but I just wanted to thank you. All of your replies and bumps have helped to make this a successful thread, and I think you should be congratulated. It obvious that you're the biggest puppet fan here to have stepped up and participated so heavily in this thread. It's great to have someone who cares as much as you do. Excellent job!

>being this much of a tightass
>wanting shit to be posted to Yea Forums
Are you genuinely retarded? Like it or not, puppets are honorary Yea Forums.

Listen, puppets are either Yea Forums or Yea Forums, and if Sneed's taught me anything, Yea Forums is a fate worse than death.

Newfag doesn't know what sage is and thinks the two puppet porn posts in between this are a "successful thread"

So which are they, a comic or a cartoon? You've dodged that about 5 times now. And I don't care what's posted on Yea Forums because I don't go there. I go here, for comics and cartoons. Not live action standup.

Cartoons and comics are just simulations made of 2D drawings

I don't give a shit. "I ruined my board and now I'm going to just pick another at total random and decide I belong there" is not a valid reason.

What part of that makes you think this applies to Randy.

>I go here, for comics and cartoons. Not live action standup.
Then just hide the fucking thread dumbass. You came into here knowing puppets would be posted and are yelling at us for posting.
Hide thread or Shift+ Left Click exists for a reason newfag.

No. That's not how this works. You fuck off back to whatever board you came from. "Just accept you're on /b2/ now" is not a valid argument.

youtube.com/watch?v=8mG76I7DpT8

Why so strict? Yeah fuck /pol/ threads masquerading as Yea Forums threads and nsfw threads are just something you sort of expect.
So fucking what if puppets get posted here. They're somewhat intertwined with cartoons so yeah. Stop being a strict fuck user and let people post. Not like its gonna be the death of the board.

Only a newfag believes that sage does anything since your comment guarantees non-saged replies. Face it, you're the biggest and best puppet fan here, and the only way you could possibly get rid of this thread is by not posting in it. Every single time you reply, you're only helping this thread. So, thanks again!

In what way at all are puppet "intertwined" with cartoons? It's not that strict at all, I'm not telling you to not post it at all or that you're evil for liking puppets, I'm telling you to post it on another board. What the fuck is the problem with going to another board? Do you just have some were tribalist association with Yea Forums that you have to make all of your activity on Yea Forums fit here? Just post it on another board for fucks sake, it's not that hard. You could've had a normal thread without me in it on another board.

>NOOOOO.... WHY CAN'T MY HAND PUPEPTS BE WHOLESOME LIKE JIM HENSON

It's fanart. That makes the fanart Yea Forums and has no effect on Randy at all.

Look, Moot designated puppets to be Yea Forums a long time ago. This was the decision of the owner of the site. Until the new owner changes the rule, puppets are Yea Forums, and that's that.

Just watching him for the first time after this thread. I like how expansive and colorful his vocabulary is, but I also wonder how he works. Seems like you would need three hands to operate him, but he's synchronizing his movements with his speech so well even during impromptu moments that it doesn't seem like he could be operated by two people.

SAMMY J AND FARLO BEST OF FRIENDS

if a puppet pleasured you with it's mouth, would that be a hand job or a blow job?

Like anybody gives a damn.

A blowjob to the puppet, and a handjob to the performer. To you? It depends on who you consider to be pleasuring you.

Puppetry is a form of animation.

Western animation is Yea Forums.

End of story, now go fuck off.

We truly live in the greatest age

It is literally television though. It's on TV.

Oh shit I forgot we have to project all our media on a tarp made of unsold issues of Gwenpool to make something Yea Forums, thanks for reminding me.

Good thing is board isnt comics and cartoons and animation. Its just comics and cartoons.

I have literally no idea what you're trying to say. Comics and cartoons are Yea Forums, that is all. Yea Forums isn't "whatever random crap people on Yea Forums dont want to post there".

Literally any fucking animation that isn't explicitly anime is Yea Forums you absolute autist. It's been like that since this boards conception and it'll be like that until Hiroshimoot shuts us the fuck down.

This is why you keep getting denied a mod/janitor position, no one fucking likes you or gives a shit about what you have to say here. Not in the puppetry thread. Not in the DBZ thread. Not in the Power Rangers thread. No one cares, nothing you do here matters and this will never change. Now, I'll say it again: Fuck off.

Yea Forums is comics and cartoons, full stop. You're objectively wrong, and I didn't even read whatever you said after the first sentence.

This. Puppetry is just mime work with a hand.

I don't need to think if a comeback, my win condition here isn't being more clever or easier because I can just be correct. Yea Forums is for comics and cartoons, full stop. That is fully correct in it's own right and I don't need a snappy slogan to make it work.

Mods don't do shit and you know it. People post porn that stays up for hours. You told me to check the rules but you didn't look yourself and see puppets not mentioned at all. Yea Forums is for comics and cartoons.

Why are you so against puppets being posted here? If the administration of the past and the current one says its animation, leave it be. Next thing you'll tell me I cant post Yea Forums reaction images on here because "its not cartoons or comics" you sperg.

Is Randy a comic or is he a cartoon? Which one? Because its neither, and this board is for comics and cartoons.

I hate when cartoonists and art teachers insist you need to add more human facial features, or in fact any facial features at all for a character to be expressive. Body language covers EVERYTHING and can even be much more appealing.

Aside from the fact that didnt answer my fucking question. Randy is technically a form of animation you twat as everyone has stated numerous times.
Why are puppets not a form of animation to you, and why do you seem to want to force that upon others when everyone else pretty much is in agreement you're the asshole here.

Because puppeteers are trained to make puppets appear expressive and lifelike, so they put more effort into it. A regular comedian doesn't get that sort of training, so he just acts how he acts.

Puppetry uses many of the typical techniques and philosophies about expression, body language and exaggeration associated with animation and cartooning.

It's core values follow that more akin to animation then live action because the basic thought process behind puppetry is making an abstract (or "cartoony") figure in being able to be easily comprehensive rather then actually realistic.

People who say puppets don't belong in Yea Forums are objectively fags.
