Design and Animation
https://vimeo.com/341023063 In my third year at CalArts I took a visual development class and discovered the wonders of adding texture to digital art. Ever since, I've been a bit obsessed with painting my own textures to scan into my computer. Most of my watercolors have thus been spent on creating colorful, blobby gradients and paint… Continue reading Watercolor May 2019
https://vimeo.com/336198839 Last month I got to be a part of something really awesome, the first Exquisite Animation April! This project was organized by Vanessa Sweet at Sleeping Fox Studio. Based on the artistic technique of exquisite corpse, each animator was given the same start and end frame with the freedom to animate absolutely anything in… Continue reading Exquisite Animation April 2019
I am so excited to be writing about this again! Last semester, I worked with the CalArts Game Makers alumni team as an asset artist on a really fun game, Flyer Hydrant! We all enjoyed it so much that we decided to continue working on it through the Spring semester as well. Our goal was… Continue reading Flyer Hydrant: Update 2
Hello everyone! I want to share what I've been up to lately and show off some new art. I've been self-teaching myself new software through YouTube tutorials and trial-and-error, but I wasn't completely satisfied with my progress. I'd often finish a project and have no idea what to tackle next or how to close the… Continue reading My Cinema 4D Journey so far…
https://vimeo.com/326656236 This winter has been a lot colder and gloomier than recent years. Being raised in California, I'm not used to so much rain. It can really affect my mood when I'm shut inside all day. Like a cat, I need to lay in a sunbeam to feel happy! Now that Spring is here, the… Continue reading A Change In The Weather
https://vimeo.com/310454789 Excited to bring you my first personal project of the year! It feels good to work on animation for myself and to have time to learn new things. Now that I'm in between freelance gigs, I've taken the opportunity to dive back into Cinema 4D. I was never too interested in 3D animation back… Continue reading Peach Truck Animation
I'd like to share with you a game I've been working on with fellow CalArts Alumni: Flyer Hydrant! (Logo by Paul Flores) Every semester, the "CalArts Game Makers Club" brings students together to collaborate on making a game in a small team. This year alumni were invited back to form their own team. I was… Continue reading Flyer Hydrant: Concept and Asset Art
https://vimeo.com/273813950 Paul and I have been trying hard to take walks every day, and sometimes we pretend like we're adventurers in a video game going on a grand journey. That's why I feel like I can relate to these characters! In the continuing effort to produce more personal animation work, I made this piece inspired… Continue reading Running Towards Adventure
https://vimeo.com/271785318 I've been using online tutorials to learn Cinema4D, and have really been enjoying the ones by eyedesyn. His tutorials are educational, concise, and very aesthetically pleasing! I especially dig how a lot of them focus on the blending of 2D and 3D. I feel like I'm learning so much, and am so thankful for… Continue reading It’s A Matter Of Catitude
https://vimeo.com/271339329 I got some new plug-ins for After Effects and wanted to try them out, so I made this short loop of my two favorite agents! The cover of the X-files theme was made on my iPad with iMachine. I hope I can get real audio equipment someday, but for now it's pretty fun playing… Continue reading I Want To Believe
