Is this character in The Last Jedi a puppet, CGI, or a mixture of both?

Question

In The Last Jedi: An “old friend” (Yoda) appears in spirit form on Ahch-To and has a conversation with Luke.I'm guessing that this character was a puppet, however the eyes in particular looked strange which makes me wonder whether it was CGI after all, or possibly a mixture of the two.Are there any sources (yet) that confirm which approach was used?

Answer 1

Hey there! It is confirmed, this was done entirely with puppetry. The only effect that wasn't practical was the glow around him.
