Barnaby Dixon, the brilliant puppeteer who created MANU the incredible performing warrior finger puppet, introduced another of his designs – the Raptor Puppet, an adorable one-handed puppet whose design he based upon a dinosaur, but a personality more commonly found in domestic animals.
In terms of the character – well the dinosaur’s personality… I’m not sure that the personality of a dinosaur is something we relate to so much. So I try to kind of get him acting a bit more like a dog, somewhat playfully and get him to play with toys maybe. He’s also sometimes like a cat.
