Puppet Tears, ep 043 — Cam Garrity

Puppet Tears: Puppetry Shop Talk

#GraphicDesign #Puppetry #Podcast Desperate times call for desperate measures. Since Adam and Cam are trapped in their houses for the time being, they're doing some navel-gazing and interviewing each other! So this week's guest is Cameron Garrity, best known for his TEDxBuffalo presentation The Power of Puppetry, his theater pieces surrounding patient advocacy called Sanity Intact, and for his work as a graphic design - often for puppetry events like The Geppetto and Puppeteer of America Festivals. Adam and Cam discuss the importance of exercises for aspiring puppet writers, how he has transformed personal experiences into works of puppet theatre, and how he has married his passion for graphic design with a life-long love of puppetry. They guys also reflect on some of the highs and lows of projects they've collaborated on together. PLUS: hear his Puppet Tear story from a time he made a less-than-ideal first impression on Sesame Street's Sonia Manzano behind the scenes of Late Night with Eugene O'Neill.
