I watched this documentary called Being Elmo. It is the story of Kevin Clash, the puppeteer for Elmo, and how he got in the business and how Elmo became what he is now. But this documentary was so much for than that. It was really fascinating and gave a deep behind the scenes look at puppeteering. It truly is an art form and Kevin Clash has the talent and was born to do this. At one point another puppeteer that he was training said, I am paraphrasing, "if only I could take Kevin's hands because he helps bring so much magic and life to the puppet in such a natural way." I really enjoyed watching it and would encourage you to check it out. It has a heartfelt message in the end. :)
