Nintendo Charity Piece

   It is that time of year again and time its Nintendo themed! I was Given Kirby as my subject for the Nintendo Charity event. My first paper craft was inspired by the ending of the original Kirby game for Game Boy; where Kirby flies away with King Dee Dee Dee's castle filled with treats. I always wondered what that looked like to the citizens of Dreamland, I hope I did it justice.

Finished Shots for my Reel

   These are two shots that I have worked on, on and off this last semester and I am ready to move on to my next shot for my reel.

Guys Great News!

Here is my end of the semester shot, I still have a few things to polish.

Getting Ready for CTN

  Even though the shot isn't fully polished I wanted to render it and put it on my Reel for CTN. My reel is now fully updated if you want to click the link tab near the top of the page. I have had a lot of fun with this shot and I am sure I will be told to fix a hundred things. But that is one of the many reasons I can't wait to go to CTN (Creative Talent Network). If anyone is hopping to one day work in the Animation Industry going to CTN is a great learning experience!

Friends With Nerds

  I was on my friends podcast Nerds With Friends last week. I was a little too far away from the microphone half the time (so I'm the quite one), but if you want to hear me and my friends talk about nerdy things check us out at,

Gang brought to Spline

I changed the camera angle, and put in a ruff lip sync when I brought my shot to spline. The cut was the only way to show the emotion in the beginning without loosing the body mechanics that followed almost immediately after.

Guys Great News! (Blocking)

Here is blocking for an animation I am working on for my Reel. Audio is from How I Met Your Mother Season 7. 

The setting is The Alamo and Davy Crockett has just died in the arms of one of his soldiers.
