TV Rig



Spent all Wednesday night on this. It was a lot of fun.

Lower Thirds for Olympics Project



Here is one animated graphic I did as a part of my Dynamic Design 2 Midterm. Done in AE and Illustrator. This crappy footage will be replaced with a better clip, alongside some greenscreen footage I'll be taking. 3D logo on the way.

The ReTop From the 7th Circle of Hell.

 
  
My first retop. This is an .obj I made of a euoplocephalus skull. It was constructed with CT scan data so the poly count was wild, and out of control. 

I didn't realize skull had so many cavities so I guess I'll be retopologizing for a while here. An all-nighter may be in store...

"Neuron"


Here's a frame from my neuron synapse animation. Not very life-like, but I thought these kind of neurons looked cooler. They flash bolts of lightning. Maybe I'll upload the whole clip, maybe I won't. It's edited pretty poorly since I rushed, so it's pretty nasty at the moment (a.k.a. embarrassing)...

Mocha for AE CS4



A track of Times Square done for my Dynamic Design 2 class. We're learning some Mocha at the moment and had to do some planar tracking. I placed some of my work over existing billboards. The roto could be a lot better on this one...

Here's the week 1 version of a brain I'm modeling for my 3D Medical Visualization class. By next week, there will be a synapse or blood flow simulation of the model. It will include a zoom into artieries that will sit along the model's surface.

Modeled in Maya and ZBrush, textured in Mudbox.

Z Brush Stuff







Here's a model I've been working on in my spare time. Did the base mesh over winter break. Did some wrinkles today in Z Brush. Not done. Can't wait to go and put some color on it after I fix the ears, retop, and finish the normal map. Original mesh is about 2,000 polys.... (Click for larger images.)

Motion Tracking in AE Week 1





We had to do some 2D tracking in After Effects for this week's homework, using footage we shot.
