Desmond the Dog was done at Lost in Space in London on film as a commerical
for the Lucuzade NRG drink. There was also a different video version.
We used Sidefx Prisms software. I did most of the modeling,
worked the animation for some the shots, and supervised the UNIX issues.
We used RenderMan(tm) to render. I wrote the painted and scuffed-up
wood shaders for the puppet model, as well as the leather shader for his
ears, tongue and collar and the furry shader for the welcome mat.
