Models for Zink inc.

Here are some more models I had done for Zink while interning for them.

The First is a model communication tower in the heart of a city for a CBC pitch we put together for Hockey Night in Canada.




The Second was a Gate to a up scale hotel and resort in India for another pitch package.








The Final one is of a Sound Stage at a rock consent I was ask to put together to explore other visual opportunities for the Disaster Deck Opener.

Sheridan Portfolio Submission

With only getting unpaid internship offered I decided to to go back to school. I was fortunate that Sheridan was offering a bridging program to those that had already finished a 3 year animation program.

here is the two characters I had to develop by my application and portfolio submission.



and here is the animation submission for the same portfolio.




Merry Go Round Model


About a month into my stay as a intern working on the Demo Reel project one of my supervisors ask me to help him remodel two items the company were using in a Toyota Car Commercial.

The first was very simple, two polls with three levels of dangling wires connecting them together. The wires would then have small triangle flags connected to them. the flags and to a lesser extent the wires had to be slightly animated to look like they were moving in the breeze.

The Second model, and the one that took much of my time on, was a large merry-go-roundoriginally model led by another intern in the studio. The intern who was first assigned to it was still in school and still learning to uses 3d computer software. And although she did a wonderful job on many of the smaller detailson the model did not properly manage the geometry.

I had to go in and condense the geometry, re-cut most of the surfaces sothey had four sides, rescaled and moved allot of stuff so it didn't look wonkyor clipped through itself. I could go on but I don't want to sound like I tookall the credit for this model. As per the flags I also had to animate the horsesas they went around the merry-go-round.

Here is a 3/4 shot of the model un-texture.



 I hope to get a copy of the final project so and when I do I will defiantlyupload a copy into this post.


Rooster Teeth Animated Adventured in HD

 One of my side projects over the years was to redo a popular youtube animation for a popular webpodcast called Rooster Teeth Animated Adventures - New Orleans.

I used the character designs from the websites old weekly comic strips and draw the two main characters in Flash. I also painted a bunch of colorful backdrops and layouts for the animation to comply with the character models.

Here are a few pics from my design pack of this project








Here are some walk cycles for my two flash characters for my ongoing Rooster Teeth Animation project.
