​Dory

Dory suffers from short term memory loss, something close to Mark's heart as a traumatic brain injury survivor (TBI). Dory's movement library was partly inspired by that experience. Mark translated 2d designs into the final character, innovating new technology in the cheeks to improve expressiveness.  These techniques are now industry standard.
