Subject: [Puptcrit] Wearing nothing else to school but MET shoes. Perhaps


What sort of dress code is in force at this school? Maybe the shoes are larger than I could imagine? (Like very tall boots?).

Today i FINALLY got to see a long video produced at The University of Southerrn California in 2005, about  longtime Los Angeles Puppeteer, Bob Baker.  The video runs about 30 minutes and includes a brief story by Bob about performing marionettes "in the round" at a nudist camp. He did not confirm it, but I just know that the puppets wore their clothes, even if the puppeteer only wore METS or just a tan.

See:

http://impact.uscannenberg.org/index.php/episodes/showpage/show24/

for the Bob Baker interview plus ultra  brief clips from "Team America", & "Being John Malkovich" (sidewalk puppet show scene just before Phillip Huber walked across the screen) and many 8x10 photo stills documenting Bob's career.
