Sorry about the sideways thing.  The All Species Day on May 5th in Montpelier, VT

She moves really well!

The program is free, and you can rotate your video using it. No more sideways stuff!

Great chimp though. My only criticism is that you're so focused on the puppet you miss out on interacting with the kids.

Do you find you have a sore back at the end of the day?

You're right about the interaction,thanks. the lady who took the video,is the maker of the feather maze. She ask me to walk the maze w/the chimp. It wasn't as random as it looked. This was done at the end of a 5 hr. festival. Lots of interaction, fear,hugs and kisses. My first time out with him. I was really surprised that I was fine physically,which is pretty amazing at my age.

I love it! I've been sketching/brainstorming similar puppets that move by the puppeteers feet!

Yeah, I suspected it wasn't as non-interactive as the video made it seem, but it's hard to tell. I'm glad your back was fine afterwards - it does look like an awkward pose.
