Primary Content
Raymond Carr was raised by Christian clowns. Yes, that’s a real thing. He was also taught by the famous Jim Henson Company. He is a master puppeteer who has worked all over the world.
On Second Thought host Virginia Prescott speaks with Raymond Carr.
He got his first start in the business at the Center for Puppetry Arts in Atlanta as an intern puppeteer. He soon went onto the Nickelodeon Studios. His first stop was in Iceland, where he understudied for the puppet Pixel, in the kids television show Lazy Town.
Carr has commandeered animatronic dinosaurs, been the voice of a pufferfish, as well as created and directed some films of his own. He now owns his own production company called Ninja Puppet Productions. The company is currently crowdfunding for a new sci-fi movie called Joyriders. It features three kids who stumble upon a dying alien who gives them the power to fly a spaceship.
