Abstract

Chinese Glove Puppets demonstrate the traditional Chinese performing art. It introduces the history, creation, and primal figure types of Chinese Glove Puppetry to provide users a basic understanding. Puppet education and puppet performance demonstrate the puppet movements. Basic puppet manipulation videos demonstrate the basic movements teaching users how the puppeteers control puppets. Real puppet show clips are also available. In order to create more fun, a changeable classic background would be used to replace the original stage and enhance the delight of creating the user's own show. This project is an educational CD-ROM for English users. By combining visual and audio elements, it presents a digital experience to lead users to this fascinating and graceful performing art.
