I've got almost twenty years of experience working in animation. This includes assembling teams to produce 3D assets and animating them for live action independent films, camera set up and 3D layout for live action/CG hybrid television animation, and performing as a one man band, so to speak, for 2D animated short music videos. I've also got a background in graphic design which happens to be handy when working in motion graphics.
I've been building connections in the creative community in a number of different disciplines for 20+ years and I'm always happy to connect with new artists, creatives of all types and storytellers.
I'm ready to bring my skills to a collaboration near you!

Created assets with a combination of modelling and kitbashing from existing models. Camera positioned to match the live action shots. Assets animated to interact with live action environment and performers. Used wind based dynamics to animate ropes in the bridge that were rigged using ahair system.
Setup shots using camera data from the live action footage provided. Assets were positioned and posed based on storyboards for later compositing into the live footage.
