Animation Reel


At last, here it is.  The final culmination of the past several weeks of work.  Utilizing my knowledge I obtained in prior courses dealing with both storyboarding, as well as digital editing techniques, I compiled my portfolio pieces into a smoothly-transitioning presentation of a reel.  My skills learned in 3D Studio Max, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe AfterEffects, and others made this possible.

One aspect of animation that I have taken a liking to is the conceptualization phase.  The point in a project in which assets come to life through brainstorming and ideas become reality on both paper and in other digital mediums.  Being a big fan of science fiction, comic books, and video games as a whole, I am passionate about them as much as I am taking inspiration from them to place into my work.  I feel my strength lies in character creation and costume design.  As demonstrated above with these concept sketches, they all show significant variation while being associated as superheroes and villains with a technological twist.
