Another fun project for CAT. This campaign featured four articulated puppets, one for each aspect of abrasion, a major maintenance concern for CAT operators. The puppets were shot on appropriate footing with a greenscreen background. I did all the compositing for around a dozen deliverables, some as long a two and a half minutes. At first, the eyes were completely static, hampering the performance. After a successful test, I was able to convince the client to add the treatment for all spots.

All in all, these characters are likeable and have unique personalities that leave an impression.
