Pacific Benefits Group Site Banner

Adobe Flash

For this animation I used a series of complex masks to reveal the image underneath. I worked closely with an illustrator to achieve a hand drawn look.

Exterro Maze

Cinema 4D, Adobe After Effects, Adobe Illustrator

This project was done for Exterro, Inc. a company that provides tools for corporations to manage their legal governance. The concept was to show the Exterro logo “cutting through the maze of the legal process.”

I built the 2D vector layout of the maze with the legal terms in Abode Illustrator. Then I modeled, lit, animated and rendered this scene using C4D. In After Effects I did some final color correction and compositing.

I also rendered several frames from this animation at print resolution which were used in magazine ad's, newsletters and other promotional materials for Exterro, Inc.

Abstract 3d / Visual Sound

Cinema 4D, Adobe After Effects

This is a personal project in which I used many of Cinema 4D's more advanced Modules including Mograph, Advanced Render and Thinking Particles.

I used audio frequencies from a song to drive a series of abstract animations, which I captured from several different angles. Then I edited and composited the final project in After Effects.

Define Belief / Copious Self-Promotion

Adobe After Effects, Adobe Illustrator

Define Belief, a four color screen-print poster illustrated by Tyler Stout, started as a promotional print piece for Copious Creative.

I was put in charge of adding motion to this illustration. Starting with his Illustrator file, I began by separating and exporting layers, which were then imported into After Effects and arranged in 3D space. By animating the camera, the city's characters, and additional content, I brought the viewer a closer, more exciting perspective of the city.
