Reel Breakdown
The Imposter – This is a sci-fi themed short animation film which I recently completed. I
was the modeler, texture artist and animator on this project. The film was done entirely
on Softimage XSI and After Effects. I used Pro Tools for the sound effects.

The Dogfight – I did the modeling, texturing and animation in 3ds Max. The missiles are
particles which have been assigned a target.

School of Fish – The modeling, texturing were done by me in XSI. I used particles with
sprites for the fish. The maps and textures were all done in Photoshop. Then I put it all
together in Combustion with some blur and glow.

Monster turnaround – I did the modeling, texturing and animation in Softimage XSI. I
baked the Ambient Occlusion into the character using Rendermap and then took the
texture into Photoshop to add details.

Monster meets Robo – The modeling, texturing and animation were done by me in XSI.

Solar Eclipse – I did the modeling, texturing, animation in 3ds Max. The sun was created
with an omni light in Max and further enhanced in Combustion where a flare, glow and
blur effect was added. An actor was shot in front of blue screen and then the background
was keyed in Combustion. The footage was then color corrected.
