We work on asset-heavy scenes at The Third Floor - which means plenty of dead air anytime I open a file or submit a render; sticky notes are my salvation.

The Billionaire Strut

Inspired by this video of Connor McGregor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wX-H6RjuPcA

Not matching the reference perfectly, his arcs are pretty wild, tried to maintain the cocky and silly attitude.  Needed a base file to practice with animation layers and learning some new software, can't help but have some fun with it.

Quick Dragon Shot

The first half of a combat sequence started last summer.   Might take another six months to finish, the file is so heavy it is difficult to work on.  Wanted more flight shots on the reel so I rendered a clean (enough) pass on the section I can get away with.

Circus Jam Asset Breakdown

Animation Mentor's "Circus Jam" released on 2/10/2016.  I posted a few updates through 2015, but wanted to compile my contribution into one space.  Just compelled to create proof of my existence in case I die tomorrow.
