Hello and Happy Holidays one and all!
I have been very busy lately; just finished a large project that should be released soon!
In the meantime, here is one of the team at Janimation's latest creations for Neiman Marcus. It is a promotional video for their seasonal Love to Give Collection.
For this piece we worked with entirely still images and utilizing After Effects, made them appear to be animated in a stop motion style. I handled many of the finer details in the spot, including various 2D effects. I dealt with much of the roto work, and was in charge of keeping track of the hundreds of images that made up the sequences you see in the final piece.
Also, I would like to share on of my first motion graphics projects in After Effects from 2013. I had just begun tutorials, and had produced one or two logo treatments, when I was handed this piece to complete. It was a very enjoyable experience!
Thanks for stopping by!
Merry 4th Quarter to all!

An Insurance Hero in Texas
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!

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:

That's it for now! Thanks for stopping by. :)

An Exploration of a Nano-tech Concept by Janimation
Hello and Welcome!
I am very happy to share with you today our latest release. It is a visual concept of the future of medicine using microscopic organic machines to break apart and then carry away tumors in brain tissue.
On this piece, my contribution was in the animatic and layout stages of production, as well as some swimming cycles and burrowing animations!
I am very happy to be a part of the fabulous team here at Janimation!
Still more work to come!
Till next time!

Gearbox's Battleborn Announcement Trailer Released (and I helped!)
One of my favorite developers Gearbox Software just released a new announcement trailer for their upcoming game Battleborn. It sounds very ambitious and if I know them, it'll feature gameplay that will hack my brain and keep me playing for hours on end.
Best part is, I helped! :) Janimation created the awesome universe explosion featured at the end of the trailer, and I contributed by organizing assets used to create it, randomizing trees, and creating that single dying star that survives.
You can watch the trailer here, and lookout for this next month's Game Informer which will feature a cover story on the game!

Are you excited? I'm excited! :D
Also, The next Dillo Insurance spot has been playing on our local televisions for a while and I am quite happy to finally share it with you all. This was produced a while ago, and one of the first projects where I helped build an animatic, and then worked on the edit through animation the animation process! As well as handle all the animation too. Building the animatics, layout and edits was quite the learning experience but also quite a lot of fun!
And speaking of the Pre-Vis process, I had the great pleasure to help with some Pre-Vis animations for a live action spot for Mrs. Baird's Bread. Our live action crew took it from there and it was really neat to see how it turned out!
Coming Soon: More Dillo and Al Boenker spots!
Ta ta for now!
