Hi, everyone! You know, before becoming a ventriloquist, I was very interested in the worlds of cartoons and animation. In this one cartooning guidebook I’d OFTEN check out from the library, it would often say costume doesn’t define the character. Is that true for ventriloquist characters, as well? I only ask because I want to update my characters’ wardrobes, but don’t know how or what?

Anyone who has studied acting knows about listening. Listening is also a big part of ventriloquism. What I mean is, the puppet on your arm is your scene partner and you must react to them in real time. I am getting better with this. Anyone else working on this? What are your thoughts?
