Puppeteer is neccesary only if motion capture data is going to drive your figure. If this is the case just be aware that you must model the figure first (there are a few ponters for this too, like modelling with extended arms and open legs, palms facing down etc.). Next create the skeleton for that figure and then, and only then, capture the motion data to drive the joints that you already have. In othe words give your skeleton (with every joint properly named) to whoever is doin the motion capture and assign the data channels to those joints. Then your project might not become a nightmare. Good luck, Arturo
