Confused Persian Puppets

Bismillah ar-Rahmaan ar-Raheem,

I had an idea of putting together a Sesame Street type of show but instead of having it in English, it would be in Farsi. Once again, this is something I had never done before (except in my head) but it sounded like fun.

Ok, this entire thing is totally improv. Yes, there was no script. Actually, I didn't even watch the whole thing...I just pressed play and made up the dialogue as the movie played. I then added background noise and sound effects since I had zero background audio to start with. And of course, I made up the voices for the characters...hahaha. For the tall green puppet, I altered my bullwinkle voice. For the purple voice, I tried to make up a older/grouchy voice. Give me a break, I'm not a voice person..haha!

Once again, this is 100% improv. This isn't a translation of any sort. Actually, I have ZERO idea what the original puppets were saying or talking about. I had no idea even what subject they were talking about. I guess that allowed me to be more open on the creative end. Its funny, I was just making up dialogue...not knowing what's coming up in the next scene. Note: Never hire me as a translator....haha

Not too consistent but it makes me laugh! (especially the end).

Here is the clip (its about 2 minutes long so it will take a little bit to load)
