Monster Mesh




This was an exercise in digital sculpting. I used a basemesh from CG artist Bobo the Seal and imported it into Mudbox.

Interactive Buildings


This was a small interactive exercise which I created in flash. I designed all of the elements in Adobe Flash and coded it in the ActionScript programming language. Hover and click on the buildings!

Here is the link to the source page in case the html embedding does not work.

The song is a Butch Clancy dubstep cover of Foster the People's "Pumped Up Kicks".

Recent Projects

Midnight Snack

This was a stop-motion project I created using paper cutouts. It was shot on 24fps using a downshooter. My favorite part about this piece was the background designs and the animation of the main crow.  While animating the crow, I kept imagining it as having wings that sort of worked like leaves, but the body of the crow being where all of the weight was. Whenever its wings begin to falter and not flap quickly enough, its body begins to bob up and down in the air.

The puppets were constructed out of paper connected by a string and tape skeleton . Each crow puppet ended up being about 1 inch in length.

The Human Text-Based Game!




This was a site specific, interactive piece. I created cards with scenarios on them, volunteers would pull the cards, and I was supposed to act out the scenarios. This piece is intended to be reminiscent of a "Choose-Your-Own-Adventure Game".  the site was important because it was shot in a game room.
