Silhouette Puppet Show: Attach Border to Screen

Video Transcript

"Now that we've made our border, we're going to put the tracing paper on top of it. And we're going to measure it so that it fits nicely inside. We're going to need to trim it. But it's very important that when you trim it you only trim the parts that are hanging over the border. The tracing paper needs to still sit on top of the border. So it's very important when you're cutting it make sure you don't cut it so that it falls inside and there's nothing to tape it to. In others words it needs to hang over the border a little bit so that we can put our clear scotch tape on it and attach it to the border. So just cut around it, make sure that it doesn't sit over the picture frame border but rather lies on top of it. Then you can go ahead and take some clear Scotch tape and we'll put a few pieces on the corners to hold it. Once you've placed all the Scotch tape around the sides and it's securely fastened to the border, we turn it over and we see that this is going to be the side that we use as our screen. And this is going to be put inside a Styrofoam board to make it stand upright. And we'll see how it all comes together to create an actual stage for the puppet show."
