The processor causes a puppet matching interface to be displayed on a client device. The puppet matching interface includes one of the puppets in a first pose. The processor receives a puppet posing input associated with a second pose from the client device. The processor causes the one of the puppets to be displayed in the second pose in the puppet matching interface by the client device. The processor can also generate a second metadata based on the puppet posing input. Other embodiments are disclosed herein.
