During 2019 I was asked to coordinate and perform as Baxi the dog in an online short promoting an upcoming series of live broadcasts. Baxi is the surprisingly smart and loyal sidekick to his owner, doing whatever is needed for the pair to stay on track. In this promo video, Baxi saves the day several times, from map reading and navigating through to fixing the broken-down van, proving his place on the team.
This was a quick turnaround project, and thus filming was limited to one day, over several locations. As the performer, I made sure that Baxi had the appropriate mannerisms and engaged naturally with the other on-screen talent.
Filming was complicated by that fact that Baxi couldn’t fit into the van. For the interior shots, I came up with a safe method of puppeteering just Baxi’s head. This allowed the shoot to continue without the need for extra filming days and the cost that would incur.

Contact UsMatthew was part of the suit effects team during a shoot with an authentic Godzilla costume at SYFY’s studio at 30 Rock. He was knowledgeable, professional, and a lot of fun to work with!
Matt gave our event a touch of magic by helping entertain and captivate our guests – we would highly recommend mascot ambassadors and would love to invite him back at our next event
Bentley bear played a key part in the Teddy Bear’s Picnic as part of the WhizzFizzFest celebrations in Aylesbury on Saturday 22 June 2019. The team were amazing and worked in an amazing partnership with ourselves. Nothing was to much trouble and totally professional at all times. The stand out moments for me across the three sittings that we entertained the public with was that just how many special life long memories were made that day. Just to see the children all happy and enjoying something so magical as a teddy bear.
An amazing day thankyou so much.
