Radar the Weather Dog is the official mascot of the Weather Channel’s kids website. We were approached with the task of bringing Radar from mere pencil sketches to a lifelike 3D character.  Radar was featured on the homepage of TheWeatherChannelKids.com beginning in 2008.

Partner and Director of Animation, Jesse Christoffersen brought Radar to “3D life” by modeling the character and rigging him for movement. The final elements consisted of rendered flash video files for the website as well as “snapshot” style poses of Radar for banners and promotional materials.
