Our good friend Edmundo Miller works and plays in Mexico.<\/p>\n<p>He sent us this video of his JET puppet that he uses as the wise and apparent know-it-all &#8220;el Padre Matias&#8221; when he performs in Mexico.  It is also an outstanding example of how using your own imagination can make a difference when is comes to changing out costuming.  This is how the puppet looked when he left The Dummy Shoppe.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/thedummyshoppe.com\/wp_jetpup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/cimg5268.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Cimg5268\" src=\"http:\/\/thedummyshoppe.com\/wp_jetpup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/cimg5268-small.jpg\" width=\"225\" height=\"337\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Take note of the completely different personality a costume change makes when you watch the video.\n <\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>This video is really good, because even though most of us won&#8217;t be able to understand a word of what is being said, we don&#8217;t need to understand.  The puppet does all the talking with his movements that are needed to have a thoroughly enjoyable show.  Take a few minutes and enjoy.  This one is good.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" height=\"315\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/v0loN8gl-7E\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"500\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe> <\/p>\n<p>This is a great example of what manipulation can do for an act.  When you don&#8217;t even have to be able to understand what is being said to be able to enjoy the act.<br \/>\nWe can all learn from examples of good showmanship.  Thats what makes this such fun.  Thanks for sharing Edmundo.  Great work.  Everybody keep on sending us your pictures and videos.<\/p>\n<p>Until next week,<\/p>\n<p>Steve and JET<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here is another great example of how a well manipulated puppet can transcend language barriers.
