So a group of the CAs at Ringling decided we would try modeling classic Disney characters over the summer to see how well we could realize them in 3d. After a week's effort--here's what I have:

Website and AWN Article

Update: Ringling College removed my website shortly after I transferred. Nonetheless, here's an old screencap.

Also this July I was commended in an article in Animation World Magazine for my work on an I48 film project (the 48 hour guerrilla film contest).

Animation Reel

Here's Ben.

Below are the original thumbnails, his model sheet, and drawings from the animatic.

Finally, this is my animation reel after completing my second year at Ringling College.

Commercial

I directed this commercial for one of the final projects for Mark Parry's Camera & Sound class. Bri Meyer and Chaz Woods helped.

Subjective Animatic and Commercial

For my final project for Concept II, the subjective animatic, I contrasted the points of view of an elephant hijacker and the passengers on the bus hijacked. It turned out kind of strange.

Below is my commercial animatic, an advertisement for Starbucks. A poodle has a frightening day at the groomers, but then is treated to a pastry. Happy ending indeed.

First Post

The drawings and photograph are from my portfolio when I applied to Ringling College.

I did these last two pieces in my Communication Design and 3d Design classes.
