![From Bedroom Puppets to Viral YouTube Star
Puppets, heyโre childโs play, right? Spend five minutes watching Barnaby Dixon and youโll surely disagree. At first, it might seem strange for a 26-year-old to be hand-building puppets in his bedroom and shooting videos of his performances for a living, but the puppet prodigyโs creations are completely original and totally addicting to watch. Barnaby started his career solely to make YouTube videos (https://www.youtube.com/user/barnabydixon), but recently hit it big after winning a 50,000 Euro grand prize on the German puppet talent show, Die Puppenstars.
