I co-directed and animated this Emmy winning commercial with my wife for the New Mexico real estate company, Longford Homes. They wanted their commercial to demonstrate how the consumer could easily go to the their web site and ultimately create the home of their dreams. The introduction of the dog character, which we also designed, become the company's mascot. All animated by hand, no CG help with house rotation.
Animated with Mirage (now TV Paint)
