What is Puppet Wrangling?

Puppet wrangling is the behind-the-scenes craft that ensures puppets look, move, and perform at their best during a production. Whether it's maintaining consistency in movements, making quick on-set repairs, or adjusting puppets for specific shots, a skilled puppet wrangler keeps everything running smoothly. From television sets to commercial shoots, puppet wrangling plays a crucial role in bringing characters to life, ensuring they remain expressive, functional, and camera-ready throughout filming.
