woOo! lookie what i found!







I was just doing some cleaning up on my little portable hard-drive and I stumbled across some old photography class assignment stuff that I never posted. So I guess this should tide me over until the new semester starts up, lol. Thanks for coming around and I hope that you all have the very HAPPIEST of holidays!

Bruce Lee vs. Zombies!





My final for Joe Olson's class, horribly late... The theme was "Imminent Defeat"... So here's the story of how Bruce Lee really died... the same way we're all going to die... Zombies. Used Prismacolor markers and Staedtler pigment liners.

3D Minotaur in Action!!




Designed, Modeled, Textured, Rigged, and Animated over the course of a semester. Used Maya, and Photoshop. Supposedly he's chasing a butterfly, but either the butterfly can be seen only by mythical creatures, or is purely a product of an over-active imagination, we will never be sure...

Vimeo is good.

Character Design Final

Snow Balla
Hamstrosity
Hockey Zombie
PLOT SYNOPSIS:

A spunky, Canadian, elementary-school age girl assumes the role of a super-hero when a mysteriously evil team of super-powered, zombie, snowman hockey players begins terrorizing her small, south Albertan town by turning the local populace into mindless, snowman zombies. The only way for the self-christened “Snow Balla” to save her friends and neighbors from the curse of the zombies is to throw “love”-infused snowballs at their frozen hearts (which immobilizes them), and then she must shout “I want to be your friend” (which shatters the enchantment). She is accompanied by a trusty hamster, that when given a special sugar-frosted food pellet transforms into a gigantic, yeti-like monstrosity capable of smashing down walls and immobilizing zombies with earth-shaking roars.

Emulation:



The endeavor to equal or to excel another in qualities or actions; an assiduous striving to equal or excel another. The first one's an attempt at Joe Madureira. The second is going for Adam Ford's style.
