Several people have asked me how I did the Chato episode. As you can see in this picture of “Profe Film Studios,” the setup was quite simple. I sat behind my movie camera which was mounted on a tripod. I spoke for and moved the puppets, whose stage was a platform constructed of a book and a box. The background image was actually a photo on my PC’s monitor that I paused in slideshow view. In the end, I wound up not using the audio recorded on my Samson C01U USB mic connected to my PowerBook G4: because I was sitting so close to the camera’s microphone, the sound was actually quite clear.

Students have also asked me to post a bilingual script to the Chato episode. Here it is. It also includes some cultural tidbits about things Peruvian seen in this episode. Enjoy!
