My Work:
Time to talk about:
My expertise.....
Stop Motion Animation
Stop motion animation is pretty much my bread and butter as shown through my reel. I mostly use LEGO Bricks and figures as subjects but still do have extensive experience with non-lego related pieces. I use Canon products for filming as well as a Stop Motion Program called "DRAGONFRAME". Dragonframe is an industry standard stop motion tool used by Seth Green's Robot Chicken and Tim Burton's Coraline.
Digital and hand drawn traditional
Traditional animation is something in my wheel house I am capable of doing as well with a precision practice. I use programs such as Adobe Animate, Toon Boom Harmony and mostly just Adobe Illustrator when lined up on a Premiere timeline. It's a balanced practice that gives the same result. So if your looking for a traditional drawn or digitally designed animation, I'm your guy!
After Effects and Compositing
I'm not just an animator, I'm also an editor capable of working in Adobe Premiere and After Effects for projects and designing a video's layout. Adding VFX and SFX, I also use other tools such as Photoshop, Audacity and other audio and visual enhancers.
