"On behalf of Expert Village I'm Emily DeCola in Puppet Kitchen in New York City. Today we are going to talk about theatrical mask. So different masks interact differently with different people and different bodies, different materials and environments. This mask my studio made it looks like a very scary old man. To me it looks like a Russian grandmother who is sad about life. This mask on me loves to play with my hair and looks like a sexy young lady. On my studio made it look like a 12 year old boy and works with a hat. So I urge you in exploring with this medium to play with different materials, to do a bunch of research and look at pictures and masks from different context and when you get into a room get a big mirror and a pile of lots of stuff and just play. On behalf of Expert Village thank you for watching."
