Room Scene

The following shots are taken from a short animation that was created by a group I was part of. Another member of the team set up the primary lights for the five scenes that comprise the animation. These primary lights are originally lit to create a dark room as the boy enters with the only light from windows, and are also the only lights in scene 1. I was responsible for creating the secondary lights for scenes 2-4, which included editing the primary lights, creating the animation for the lamp light, as well as smaller detail lights for different objects within the scene.








The following link is the entire animation with all five scenes and some editing in Nuke:

Lighting Work Examples

Here is a shot of an outdoor scene that I arranged and lit. I was looking to capture the tense feeling of a suspense movie, in which the characters are pausing to hide after being chased.



Rigging Work


This playblast is an example of simple rigging I have worked on. The gears, after the first with a piston, are all moved through constraints and expressions.

Samples of Photography

These are a few samples of my photography. I find inspiration for photographs in everything, and often wish I had my camera on me to capture a great image.
