We're going BIG this week, since our guest is a
master of costume characters both inside and out! Cedwan Hooks is a
puppeteer for screen and stage who you can see on Slugs and Bugs,
Moon and Me, and Doom Patrol, plus a wrangler on a number of
television series, including Sesame Workshop's Helpsters on Apple
TV+. He is also the owner of Creatures Inspired, his own LLC where
he designs, builds and consults on professional puppetry projects,
including the Dreamworks Experience in Macau.
Tune in for this awesome conversation ranging from Cedwan's early
love for Barney and Friends, his big break in high school designing
and building his own Audrey II, to now working full-time in the
entertainment industry. Don't miss his insights into what makes an
effective walk around puppet, puppeteering on a set during the
COVID outbreak, and Cam and Adam drop a few Wizard of Oz puns for
good measure.
