In the category of weird but fun origami assignments...
I was recently asked to create an origami Cuban Solenodon, a rare, rat-like mammal, out of an orange Tootsie Roll Pop wrapper, for the show "NCIS-LA." Apparently, the character, played by LL Cool J, likes to do origami while on stakeout. I started with a blintzed fish base. The snout and tail, plus four little feet and two ears emerged from that base. You can see a clip from the show, which aired this past week, on my website: http://www.joeldstern.com/commercial-work/ Enjoy! Joel
