Puppet Pals2

Hi everyone!

I am going to introduce you an application used for digital storytelling. Unfortunately, its name is Puppet Pals and it is only available for IOS and you must purchase this application in order to use its full version.

The application Puppet Pals 2 is designed to be an educational tool for ESL learning. Students are engaged with acting out historical events and practicing language skills with the help of this application.

When you open the application, you will see the following picture.

If you enter the code, you can install those features as you like.

Firstly, you need to choose a location (background) for your short video. You can find a variety of backgrounds here.

The second step which you need to do is to create characters. You can make the characters as to your taste, also mix and match heads and bodies at random. You add your combination to the scene by clicking the green check. This is free. But, if you want to add our images, we have to purchase this application.

This application also presents you different music in order to insert your video.

I chose this background and character. I am inspired from Red Kit cartoon.

The blue buttons allow you change the background, music, characters and items like horse, bus etc. (But, only horse and car are free.) You record the voice by using the red bottom.

Characters are not stable, you can move them as you like.

If you tap the characters when you record, they move their mouth as if they were speaking.The sticks on the bottom-right corner of the picture show you volume of your voice.

When your project is finished, you can share it via e-mail, Facebook, or your blog.

Students (for primary/secondary school) should be supposed to prepare a cartoon by using this application. You can ask them to make a story about it after you teach the subject.Thus, they reinforce that subject by enjoying.

You can watch the  following examples of Puppet Pals 2.
