For those of you who use vent in the classroom, ministry, as a part of your therapy practice or other, what has your experience been like? What have you learned?
I branched out and started combining ventriloquism and music. (Who would have thunk it). May Wilson (who has the voice) has recorded two songs. This has given me so much confidence as a vent but all around entertainer. What ventriloquism milestone are you most proud of? Please feel free to share with the group.
When doing your live shows, do you prefer a mic stand or headset? I’m old school (NYC comedy clubs is where I cut my teeth) so I like a mic stand. Some vents like a head set because they can move freely. So what’s everyone’s preference?
I personally prefer soft mouth puppets because they are lighter and more suited to my smaller size. (I am 5’3.5 inches tall and sometimes a wooden figure is too big for me). What do you prefer, soft mouth or wood? Let the group know.
