The puppets are usually made from leather(皮革)or paper.It is hard to make them.The puppet﹣makers have to take 24 steps,which include washing the leather,carving and painting,to make a puppet.
Just like many things that are in danger,traditional arts also face the risk of disappearing."Many young people still think that shadow puppetry is an old﹣fashioned(过时的)folk art," said Liu Chaokan,the sixth generation inheritor(继承人)of shadow puppetry in Yunnan Province.
Liu understands why old art forms(形式)couldn't interest young people.To make young people fall in love with old art forms,he connects new stories with the traditional form of storytelling.In a recent show based on the ancient Chinese novel Journey to the West,Baigujing dances to a Korean pop song.Popular Chinese cartoon characters,together with the modern factors(元素),are Liu's secret in getting the attention of children."Since children couldn't understand those old stories,why don't we show them the cartoon characters they love in shadow puppetry shows?" said Liu.To make the old art more popular,Liu will come up with many creative ways.
