Industry reviews next week! Excited and nervous as well. Since I haven't posted since last month, here are a few pieces I've been working on... all of which are still WIPs. After next week, I'll have so much to post, including parts of my thesis... and like tradition will have so much stuff you can scroll down through. Wish me luck!

^ Evian Redesign WIP:

Modeling, lighting and texturing done in Maya. Quick comp done in After Effects.

^ Robot Adidas Project WIP:

Modeled, lit and textured, rigged in Maya. Quick comp in After Effects.

Still animating it!

Time to say goodbye to my bed until next Wednesday!

Finals, stragglers + less than 6 hour test!

DONE!!

It was an AMAZING and really awesome semester! To me, after a really really quick turn around from doing concept, and turning a new corner into 3D/VFX and Character Animation, I'm totally grateful for it! Just meeting people from Siggraph LA, like Damien from Pixerati, to working at Mobile Motion with MoCap and Augmented Reality, and learning all these new programs--this has been such an exciting and fun year, even with the all nighters and hard work! What's best of all, are my friends/work companions who worked/played through it with me! Their finals are pretty sweet and their links are on the sidebar, so go check it out!

Anyway, after me blabbing, here's some work to show! YAY!
