Custom Puppets
Custom Puppets, Designed and Built in Los Angeles
Pro Puppet Makers builds custom puppets for productions of every size, from a single hand puppet for a web series to sixteen-foot characters for a stadium.
What we build
Hand-and-Rod Puppets
Muppet-style soft foam characters built for camera and stage.
Giant Puppets
Theatrical figures up to 16 feet tall for concerts, stadiums and parades.
Full-Body Characters
Walkaround characters worn by a performer, built for film, events and live shows.
Activations
Costumed characters, puppets and interactive experiences for brand events, launches and promotions.
How we build
Made by working puppeteers
Our builders perform, so every puppet is made to work as well as it looks: light on the arm, balanced, and built to survive a long shoot or a tour.
We design original characters in-house or build from your artwork. Each character is sculpted digitally, given a 3D-printed structure, then finished by hand in foam and fabric.
