The dog is simply frightened by the camera as it is accidentally knocked out of the blue screen area and into the surrounding space which is typically not meant to be filmed.   A Flat Ontology director and editor: Lara Bank running time: 13 seconds video (no audio) 2004 watch 640k download Description The flat can of paint used to paint the blue screen remains to remind us that this is a "flat" or leveled image, a composed and fictional space for a belief system. The fiction is the limitation of what is depicted in frame which never represents the totality of reality.
