You know, you sound JUST LIKE Jim Henson's original voice! Sure, we may be used to Steve Whitemire's Kermit today, but you are just as good as the original Kermit! Maybe one day when/if Steve passes away, you could be the next Kermit!
This was honestly the first video I've ever seen of someone using a replica Kermit.
Seek out "Kermit the frog meets hunter" for another excellent replica. The love and care that these builders put into well made reproductions is outstanding
This is a lot like Jim Henson's Kermit. I think the one you do now is MUCH better. You don't seem to capture a lot of Kermit's authority as it was done by Jim Henson (In this video). And of course in the Audioflesh video he's a lot more lively and a lot like Steve's character.
My only real problem with the voice alone is that it sounds a little bit too high pitched... Which is why you're perfect for imitating Steve Whitmire.
I gotta say u are really good at puppet building!!! If you don't mind I would like it if you would private message me bcuz I would like to discuss the possibility of you making me an Animal puppet??? Well discuss prices and stuff if you don't mind!
brother you need to carry your butt over to henson studios and show them what you got! i think i covered all your videos and i'm very very impressed! great job!
amazingly made puppet, and a good voice. i mean, if i heard that on a real muppet production i'd probably think something was a little off, because i think it is a nice mixture of henson's and whitmire's.
I agree with you that many kermit impressions are abismal, as is mine.
Those are some great impressions! And I love the handmade Kermit puppet!! Definitely the best I've seen. If you don't mind me asking, (i've never built a puppet or muppet before), How did you make it and how long did it take?
that's an awesome puppet! i am building a kermit puppet and i have a few questions. 1) did u use ping pong balls for the eyes? 2) and did u use foam in the head, body and arms?
@kermit3001 wow. the ORIGINAL one also used ping pong balls for eyes. in fact the only thing kermit is made of is ping pong, you know, balls and an old green jacket.
This is the first video I saw of you.... you blow me away with piggy and Floyd. Kermit's very good too and what you do with your hand in the head is perfect... try to work on different level of speed with kermit.. more contrast... lively.. it,s seem too much at the same level.... could fall asleep (if you understant what i mean). and can't beleive that you build this one.. GREAT Job... Please work on some adequate lighting for your videos... to see the beautiful artwork...ok next videoLOL
@kermit3001 really now? becuase oyou would be a great successor to kermit,piggy,and everyone! and great Kermit puppet its perfect! Don't be self conious you just focus on the goal buddy!
BRILLIANT! Too bad it isn't like the old days when you'd turn up to the studio to audition and meet the magic-makers yourself. You'd have to be in- if not as a performer, certainly as a creator.
how do u make them hold things
