PERSONAL

Animation and Photography

1964

This is personal project modeled and rendered in C4D. 

This 3D scene is a snippet of a story I created about Richard, a loner and a mystery/murder writer in the 1960’s. At this exact moment in time Richard is in his apartment, his alter-ego Jeffrey has just left, and Richard finds himself savoring a hot shower. Not entirely sure how he got there and in a slight trance, he watches the last of a rich metallic liquid run from his hands, swirl with the steaming water and vanish down the drain. It’s a blustery spring night in 1964, a mother is just now missing her daughter and Richard’s next novel has just begun.

Solo project - All modeled, textured, lit and rendered in C4D. Finished in After Effects.

 
 
 

Macro Photography

A selection of images taken of the Irish countryside, Brazilian side-roads and many places in between. Macro photography intrigues me for the abstractness, the flexible composition and the textures that can be drawn from essentially anything.

 
 
 

Will

Will is a previz style animation originally inspired by personal events and video-game cut-scene animation. 

It is a story about Jason, a young but ruthlessly successful tech business owner. Jason rose quickly, built a successful empire, and expanded into other sectors, each more secretive than the last. With the more power and wealth he accumulates the more his moral compass has wavered. Success comes at a price. In his building overlooking NewBoston, Jason calms himself while waiting for the call, the completion of his boldest, most morally questionable move yet. Knowing this will cement his business dominance he also feels a knot of guilt. If he is the winner, there has to be a looser, and the victim is closer to his heart than he would have liked.

Solo project - 3D assets were collected from online sources. Animated, textured, lit and rendered in Maya and finished in After Effects.
