Though the Muppets usually perform their own stunts, at times certain movements or scenes in the Muppet films have been accomplished through stunt doubles, often in full-body suits. In these cases, the doubles are generally only used for long-shots, with the regular puppet and performer intercut for close-ups. Most often, however, Muppet stunts have been achieved through careful rigging and radio controls. The advent of green screen technology in recent years, allowing performers to be matted out entirely, has reduced the need for Muppet stunt doubles.
