Hey everyone!

Below is a link to some work that I'm doing at SCAD for one of my MFA Visual Effects Classes. Some of it will eventually be crossed over to this page, but until then, you can still see what I'm working on!

Check it out!

Thanks!

As most of you know, I've been accepted to SVA's MFA in Computer Art and SCAD's MFA in Visual Effects programs. This fall I'll be attending SCAD because I feel the specificity of their program and it's resources will relate to my interests in more ways then the latter.

But anywho, still looking for work till September so please contact me if you have any open positions!

Here is a temp lighting scheme with a quick look at how the final texture will be placed.

Hey guys, been awhile since I've posted something new up on here... Here is a still rendered out of mantra / mental ray and then composited in Photoshop to give a better sense of the final piece.

Let me know what you think!
