Know what you are asking and know that this is not the answer you are 
looking for. But...
The most exciting "animated" heads that I have seen are those that have no 
moving parts - but are rather animated the way in which they are sculpted. A 
turn of the head changes the expression - or the way in which the puppet is 
lit.....etc.
The most recent example of something I saw that was like this was Steven 
Barr's Faust marionettes (movie).

Manipulation and design seems to be able to make an inanimate object very 
much "alive" with an unlimited (perhaps) capacity for facial movements to be 
perceived.

Hi i am mostly a lurker in here but decided to hit the keys to ask what may 
seem to be an odd question.

Whats the most facial movements ever made by or to date possible with a 
single a puppet head. Those only created by a single puppeteer and ONLY with 
one hand?



Thanks J Jones
