Includes some updates thru the end of last year.Animation, Motion Graphics2013 -
Helped out my friends at Draftfcb with this down and dirty homage to "The Expendables." A tongue-in-cheek movie trailer lead-in to an otherwise tame Sharpie demo. If only my Sharpie could spit fire, I'd surely buy more.Animation, Motion Graphics, Visual Effects2013 -
:30 spec promo for NHL. C4D and After Effects with a little TFD love on top. I composed the score with some sweet SFX compliments of Jared Stachowitz and Jason Ryan. Special thanks to Rick Thompson for his much needed encouragement and art direction. And thanks to Tom Mackey for his amazing eye for detail on the engravings. I couldn't have finished this without ya!
A side note - all visuals created on my MacBook Pro in HD and music composed on my iPad. Who needs a stinkin' office?Creative Direction, Motion Graphics, Music2012 -
I had an incredible time working on this pitch. No go for the agency, but potential for another project down the road.Advertising, Motion Graphics, Storyboarding2013 -
One of a slew of treatments presented for consideration. 3D elements created in C4D. I later adapted this execution for a personal project.Animation, Creative Direction, Motion Graphics2012 -
A series of titles from our award-themed annual meeting.Animation, Motion Graphics, Visual Effects2013 -

On the low-poly bandwagon for a spin. Fun to experiment with flocking behavior on the gulls.Animation, Motion Graphics2013 -
Typographic free-style. SFX provided by Jason Ryan.Animation, Motion Graphics, Typography2013 -
Second verse, (almost) same as the first...Animation, Motion Graphics, Typography2013 -

So many deals. So little cart.Animation, Motion Graphics2013 -
A short from a monthly themed personal project series. C4D/AE. The theme for this one was - you guessed it - love/hate.Creative Direction, Graphic Design, Motion Graphics2012 -
Another take on the love/hate theme. Used jiggle deformer with vertex mapping in C4D, and Trapcode Particular for blood spatters.Character Design, Creative Direction, Motion Graphics2012 -
Poster design exploration. Didn't make the cut, but I like where it's heading. C4D and Photoshop.Art Direction, Digital Art, Print Design2012 -
I'm working on an abstract pastel portrait for my wife, Kim. Dimensions are roughly 30"x 40". These details show my progress. I hope to update with the finished piece soon...Drawing, Fine Arts, Painting2012 -
A small selection from various tags and supers. I've spent about 3 years developing this match-move look for Taco Bell. All work was completed remotely in Chicago in conjunction with our West Coast office.Art Direction, Computer Animation, Motion Graphics2012 -
There you go again. Braggin' bout your big HD. Form and Particular and Optical Flares, oh my!Animation, Creative Direction, Motion Graphics2012 -
A couple TV highlights. Did a whole bunch of color correction on the backgrounds, animated supers and threw a few CG jellybeans in for good measure on the Easter spot. Created a graphic bed for product offers on the Jaclyn Smith spot. This was the first look developed for Kmart's seasonal sale campaigns. "Mr. Bluelight" character created by Gravity.Art Direction, Computer Animation, Motion Graphics2012 -
Graphics portion of a longer piece for DRTV, a Form and Particular love-fest. Five days, start to finish.Animation, Art Direction, Motion Graphics2012 -
Concept for new business pitch. I wanted a break from the usual "super" so I hooked up with the insanely talented Jared Eberhardt to direct this little number. It helped secure a win in it's own small way, but never saw the light of day again. Sound familiar?Cinematography, Creative Direction, Set Design2012 -
Short test of C4D's hair and dynamics systems. No idea where where or what's going on here, but I liked it well enough to turn it into a title card for the reel. I'd like to get back to this one.Animation, Creative Direction, Motion Graphics2012
