CNN Logo Animation
CNN Logo Animation: (Lighting/Animation) An early assigment in my 3D Animation class, I used Electric Image to create this clip. We had been taught how to set up light rays and smoke but I modeled “shards” in FormZ to use as a rotating gobo in front of my virtual back light. (The logo was generated as a type element from a font called Cable DIngbats that contained many TV network logos.)

Computer Lab Walkthrough
Computer Lab Walkthrough: (Modeling/Textures/Lighting/Animation) This computer lab walkthough was a group final project for my 3D Animation class. I did the textures and lighting in Photoshop and Electric Image. It’s a Phong render. Originally intended to show all the lab rooms, the NTSC version of what you see here required 13 hours to render on the night before graduation. PowerMac 8500s were great weren’t they?

SFWMD Logo Animation
South Florida Water Management District Logo Animation: (Modeling/Animation) After I graduated from IFAC and subsequently began working for my former 3D Animation instructor, we created this logo animation as part of a proposal we were working on for this government agency in Florida. The 3D logo was created with one of the first versions of Zax Dow's 3D Invigorator plugin for Electric Image.

True Mysteries
True Mysteries: (Writer/Director/DP/Sound Mix) When I came home to find the trees at my apartment complex butchered, I grabbed a miniDV camera I had from work and documented the carnage. It was some time later that I got my friends together and created my response.

God Hates Me
God Hates Me: (Co-Director/DP/Sound Mix) This super-short was created for the 60 Second Film Festival, which accepted movies that were 60 seconds or less. Unfortunately, the company running the contest became defunct sometime between the deadline and the awards event. It also features my first visual effects shot.

Evolved Name Annoucement
Evolved Name Annoucement: (Writer/Director/DP/Compositor/Sound Mix) After teaming up with a friend who was taking film courses at the local CC, we decided to have a kickoff event for our friends where we announced our new "production company" name and suprised them with the premiere of a new short.

Telephony
Telephony: (Writer/Director/DP/Sound Mix) Entered in the Adobe Digital Cinema Festival, this was a short I had written about our relationship with the telephone and how we may not always be genuine when we connect with others using this technology that does not communicate our appearance or body langauge.
