Developing the design for the Dog masks for the “So Called Dogs” section was a very organic process. Rinde came to me with the problem of creating commedia dell’arte style masks for the scene where Calub encounters beggars on the outskirts of the city. We started just my making blank half mask for the cast, then while watching the rehearsal process developed the idea of a pack of dogs. With some actor input and using an additive process with brown butcher paper and glue, the dog masks came to life.
