Good Day Everyone!
The third Dillo Insurance spot that Janimation completed really pushed the envelope on the cartoony realism! 2 new amazing environments and a new character for the Dillo to *briefly* interact with!
These spots are always so much fun to perfect the timing and spacing from both an animation standpoint and a layout/animatic perspective!
More projects coming soon!
TTFN Everybody!

An Insurance Hero in Texas

Gator Wrestling!
Howdy folks!
The latest spot in Janimation's ad campaign for Al Boenker Insurance can be viewed here! It features a new character that was quite a lot of fun to work with. :D
I was again responsible for Pre-Vis and Layout. Greg Punchatz and Mitch Lotierzo worked with Face Robot to handle the lip-sync while I handled much of the the body animation of these two characters.
I learned quite a lot from this project. Mostly that Alligator Wrestling is not only something that humans do, but is considered a sporting event with some historical roots. I honestly had no idea, despite living in Florida for roughly 5 years!
Also, in pouring over reference, I learned that alligators and crocodiles are simultaneously goofy and terrifying at top running speed:
Croc Run Video Reference
That's it for now! Thanks for stopping by. :)

Babies, Aliens and TP
Hello Everyone!
I apologize for not posting since March, quite a bit has been happening!
First I was officially hired on full time as an Animator at Janimation! It's really such a wonderful place to work, all of my co-workers are amazing, and we work on so many exciting projects. Everyday feels new and fresh, and I never know just what I'll be working on.
Next, The Alien Rage cinematic trailer was released last June. This project is a teaser for an new FPS by City Interactive. Quite a lot of love was put into this one, and I'm very happy I was able to contribute. The things that I helped bring to life through animation are the probe, time lapse elements, the giant mech and alien ships that tear up the place, and the hardcore looking guy with a giant gun at the end.
Next, a promotional video for White Cloud brand Bath Tissue. I made sure the packages stayed felt light and soft as it "bloomed" and floated through the clouds. It turned out very magical indeed.
Also, my best friend gave birth to a beautiful baby girl, little miss EmmaLee! I was sure to put my crocheting skills to work to make sure she would be warm this winter:
Emma's mommy loves ducks, so I thought this would be perfect.
Till next time!

Happy Holidays! 2012 Card
Hope everyone had a great holiday season and a very happy new year!
This year I again designed and printed custom cards, but ran out far too quickly again!
I present my LolCatz Card:
Also, a number of animation projects have been released on the web! Here's one done at Janimation for United Way!
I also helped clean up motion capture with animation intern Andy Green when id Software worked with Janimation to release the Doom 3 BFG edition! I hope to get some videos from that up very soon!

Shakespeare and Elephants
Hello everyone!
I completed this guy a little while ago. He is the first crochet project that I made for myself. Because I love Shakespeare.
Also, I found one of my animations published online this week. It's posted by the GOP youtube channel, so I imagine it is safe to share with everyone!
Whatever your political views, it was quite fun to animate this guy! Did you know elephants don't walk like most quadrupeds? Turns out (due to their mass I imagine) they spend most of their walk cycle on 3 legs. Thanks again Mr. Muybridge!

Naturesweet- Tim the Tomato
Hello there everybody!
I have officially begun work as a Freelance Animator for Janimation! I couldn't be happier! ^_^
And although I am unable to tell you what I'm currently working on, I will post the past work that I can here!
So far, I can only share this little number I did back when I was an Intern! You might recognize Tim the Tomato from Post magazine where he was featured on the cover in June 2012!
The animation is mine, while it was modeled and rigged by my co-worker Cris Fudge, and textured, lit and rendered by our creative director, Greg Punchatz.
I am also happy to share some sketchbook pages from when I was working on this project! Mostly I was trying to find strong poses or just having fun drawing this guy!
More to come... eventually!
