Had the opportunity to create a trailer for Plutonians. A new crypto VR video game based on first person space fighting. I'm also working on the ships that users will be flying in game! Designed in Cinema4D and Octane Renderer. Substance Painter and Rizom UV were used for texturing and UV mapping. Used the RNDR network heavily, which helped take my render times down drastically. The music was made in Ableton!

Designed and created a collection of easily usable visuals for use on stage, music videos, social media, etc. The visuals can be synced to any song without the need for any programs or high end software. Which gives anyone the ability to create high quality visuals, that match their music and brand, anyway they want. These can be edited together on any platform or mobile device. It also includes high quality album art that can be easily edited to add your own title and logo. Making the process of building a brand easier than ever. I partnered with XLNT studios in Hollywood to develop this product and tutorials on how to use it!

When I collaborated with XLNT Studios to create a digital product, I knew we needed a great ad to show off the product. I shot and directed a 60-second ad that could be edited for any length ad on social media. We showed how any level of artist could use this product and get amazing results! We were even able to get the pack’s visuals on one of Insomniac’s live stream stages, which in 2020 are the “biggest” stages in the world right now! We shot this over 3 days on an 8K Red Helium with Sigma FF Lenses.

XLNT Studios is a music production studio located in Hollywood, California. XLNT Studios needed a refresh of their logo, which I redesigned for them into a clean and modern take on their name. They also have a very popular YouTube channel called XLNT Sound where they breakdown how EDM songs are made with various production techniques. They sell a wide variety of sample packs online and needed a refresh of their digital pack design. I created a very clean, modern design that could be applied to all of their packs with new logos for each. They keep coming out with new packs and I’ve kept coming up with new and interesting box designs to represent each new product. One of my favorites was to create a futuristic spaceship covered in graffiti. Using real hand painted graffiti that I scanned in, I created brushes in Substances Painter and covered the ship in extremely detailed art!

Designed and created an ad for Luc Belaire Rose and it's luminous bottle line Luc Belaire Fantome. The entire ad was created in 3D with Cinema4D, RealFlow and X-Particles. Re-creating the bottle for macro shots was a very meticulous process, but the final product came out exactly how I wanted. Throughout the design process I wanted to highlight the pink/purple color scheme, along with the luminous design of the Fantome bottle. I also created the music to give the ad a bold, energetic feel.

I was the lead 3D Artist on a project for Autocrib, an industrial vending machine company. Their products specialize in vending large, bulky, industrial tools and equipment. Their new line of machines can do this in an incredibly fast and organized fashion. My job was to recreate these machines in high detail, inside and out, to show how they operate. Along with recreating them, I also had to show these machines in an interesting and eye catching way. We received the CAD files of each machine that had thousands of parts, which I cleaned up and optimized for better workflow. With reference images, I textured the parts just like the original machines, and set up the inner parts to operate as they would inside. Doing this for 5 separate machines was a massive amount of detailed work, but in the end the project came out fantastic!

Givenchy’s Haute Couture is a line of custom fitted, high-end clothing. I helped design the visuals for a video showcasing some of the new designs in this line. The room it was shot in needed some clean up to help keep the focus on the clothing (a still of the room beforehand is at the end). The smoke effects were created with custom smoke plates shot in 4K. They were then tracked and colored into each shot.

I was the VFX Supervisor on Pink Sweat$- Body Ain’t Me music video. The main task was to put Pink’s head onto a child’s body throughout the music video. The most challenging parts of this process were, keeping the lighting on the child and Pink Sweat$ consistent, and being able to get a solid track of Pink’s head onto the child’s body, while keeping the movements of both looking natural. The trick was to do two takes of each shot, one of the child in the stroller and the other of Pink Sweat$ in a wheelchair, moving through the lighting in the scene. Due to an in-camera error, the pink LUT that turned all the grass in the scene pink was baked into the footage. Meaning the green screen we used behind Pink Sweat$ was almost unusable and required a massive amount of rotoscope work. But after everything, it came out looking great and compliments the song very well!

RED Cinema Cameras released their Hydrogen One cell phone, and I worked with Good Boy Productions to help create the tutorial series for the phone. I worked on the phone/camera animations and helped finalize the editing on a few of the videos.

Got the opportunity to be the Visual Effects Supervisor on the Kiyomi- High Ladder music video. The sequences involved visuals tracked to her face as she sang, abstract CGI elements, and practical ink visuals that were a blast/mess to create.

Designed and created an EP cover art for an electronic music duo named FOMO. The album art captures the energy and theme of all four songs on the EP!

Collection of projects (digital and live-action) I’ve created or shot for IF&Co. They are the largest and most know jewelry designer in LA. They have designed custom chains and jewelry for virtually every rapper and are constantly creating for A-list stars.Started by Ben Baller 20+ years ago, IF&Co has become the face of high end custom jewelry on the west coast. IF&Co can take any idea and transform it to a stunning piece of jewelry.

In the live action stills you can see some of their smaller signature pieces, as well as some of the most expensive chains they've made ($500,000+).
