User:Dollmaster

I love the term dollmaster. I consider myself as the one who controls the universe. Just kidding.

Dollmaster is a puppet master, a puppeteer, a person who manipulates an inanimate object (a puppet) to create the illusion of life. The puppeteer may be visible to or hidden from the audience. A puppeteer can operate a puppet indirectly by the use of strings, rods, wires, electronics or directly by his or her own hands placed inside the puppet or holding it externally. Some puppet styles require puppeteers to work together as a team to create a single puppet character.
