Updating portfolio

The past few years I have been working on some new projects. Take a look at my site to see what has been updated. Game Art, Sketches and Such mainly.

Bayou Blast Teaser

I was working at a Seattle based studio called Gamehouse. We created Facebook applications. I did a lot of Flash animation for various titles. This allowed me allowed me to write and direct a teaser trailer for one of our Facebook games called Bayou Blast, Check it out here: https://apps.facebook.com/bayou-blast/

Video Tag

This is a self promotion exercise that I created in Adobe After Effects.

Albany

This was an animation created in After Effects, working on timing with music and the background was created to set a mood. I taught this exercise in an After effects class for Bellevue College.

More Advice

I've been working on this animation for a few months, Seemed like it would never be complete, or as complete as I have it at this point. With animation, there's always more to tweak, tweaking may never end. I'm really happy with this piece. I'd like to thank my buddy Mike Baran (http://baranarts.com/thebsides/) for his encouragement and awesome feedback.

Motion 2 Music

At Bellevue College, I worked with students importing music and animating to the music. the focus was timing. This was a pretty fun exercise. Don't judge me on the song, I used it as an example... =)

Demo Reel

I find that when people are looking for my demo reel on my website that they run into issues of either finding it or downloading it. I'm posting it here on my blog so you can just click and watch, easy peasy! Note: This is a compressed version. So when you view it large it will look grainy.

Doggy walk

Here's that walk with the same rig.. Fricken' cute!

Doggy Canter

This is a fun animation I worked on using a rig that a friend created. They needed some testing don on this to see if I could move it around and it srill look good. I did a walk with him too, I'll post it as well.

Flying Animation

This was an animarion that I worked on a while ago. I felt that it turned out pretty solid. I could continue to tweak forever as with anything else but I thought I should move forward.

walk across floor

It's been a while since I did some animation and I need to keep pushing that in order to find that perfect animation job. Been getting some great feedback from a friend of mine. He's been a great help. Here's a walk sequence I did. It's short but you can loop it.

advice animation

Here's the final for my advice animation, finished it a while ago but haven't made time to post it.
