Siren Puppet

Kind of Project: Puppet Design

​

Programs Used: Procreate

          One day a shipyard worker was working late at night when all of a sudden they heard the sound of slithering coming towards them. It was a snake-like siren. The creature jumped onto the worker’s back and refused to let them go. The worker is constantly trying to get the creature off of them, while the creature constantly tries to attack the worker. Neither party ever wins, leaving them stuck together.

          This is a puppet design for a majestic snake, siren creature. The puppet would wrap around the performer, with one arm animating the tail and the other arm animating the head. Fake arms would appear to be holding the creature. The performer would be wearing a beat up shipyard costume.

Notes and sketches during the design process are included in the slide.
