I thought it was pretty logical to make a shredded paper Dog costume. My friend who is a Sheepdog, he made one long ago, for Halloween, and I'd always heard stories about it. His suit featured wider strips, scissors cut, which took a long time to do, but it was a paper costume with a full head.
Around the time I made my costume 'Papey', I'd seen a video of a girl who made a Dog suit from actual newspaper, and she walked in and kind of pounced her boyfriend from behind while he was on cam, and I thought that was humorous and cute, with her acting like a Dog, with a yappy voice.
MFF was coming up later that year and I decided to do a take on that idea with shredded bond paper. I'd made Dog masks for a long time from paper, like one that was thicker paperboard with a moving jaw with a hinge made out of paper fasteners and covered with cotton balls, when I was in junior high.
Yes, I still do Photomorphs! You must be remembering the Portal of Evil days when my site was featured as an Exhibit, and my art was exposed to them, I think Skippy was the first one posted. Sadly I don't have a site with them to show right now.
I'm still actively making Photomorphs and 'Dogfaces' though, I do them when I can and have done hundreds of them. There are something like 50 more iterations of Skippy since you might have seen him in the mid-2000s. I also got back into sketching and drawing more, as well as some CG painting, or sketching, scanning and then coloring it on screen.
I didn't get into image based art much with Dom, and don't know if I'd shown him the photomorphs or drawings right away. We just started with interviews, being a Dog and how it started, Furry, showing how Papey worked, and some filming at a park.
The movie is not devoid of art, a number of pieces are shown, I just don't think it had time for the mechanics of the creation, like someone drawing a piece, or sitting at their computer moving a mouse around. Likewise it doesn't show how fursuits or sex toys are made either, it's more in your face and asking questions.
