Subject: [Puptcrit] another note on TV and lip sync.


It is my "current" understanding that in those early days of
TV  ( which incorporated some of my early days) the sound
track and the picture track were not necessarily in sync all
the time anyway, which would have made it nigh unto
impossible to achieve "viewer noticable" lip sync
As technology "improved", so did the capacity for audience
appreciation of televised lip sync..
To blend a few thread lines here....
I would think that most "master puppeteers" that had the good
forturne to be featured on early television would not have had
such opportunities presented to them, if they had not a certain
finesse at lip sync (where applicable - as Kukla was exempt
from such) ... unless other factors were at work
or mistakes were being made on all fronts.
