Kris & Izzy
Project started as an assignment that I expanded upon & started world building. I have a short film based off of these two characters that I would love to bring to life.
Kris & Izzy (the tricertops) are pals in a future world covered in sand. They set out on a rescue mission to return members to the heard & find out an oasis of life is awaiting them.

Nestle Pitch
A small team at Nestle contracted me to help storyboard a pitch for potential partners, Purina dog food and Kwik.Me. The story was simple; owner runs out of pet food, presses the Kwik.me button and in no-time a new bag of Purina dog food is delievered.
I included a small animation for the pitch.
Lake Kids
This was a fun & quick excerise. We took a starting Image (which I redrew panel #1) and had to tell a story only using 6 camera setups or less.
Eric was feeling romantic and thought he would take Lori out on a little sunset paddle. Little did either of them know that there was something lurking below.
Sam & Max
Cinematic test completed for TellTale Games. Storyboarded, edited, voice acted all within 18 hours.
French Toast
From time to time I enjoy editing and cutting together video. This was a fun project I dedicated to my friends after living in the Bay Area for 2 years.
For 11 weeks we would meetup at a diner and eat French Toast (most nights). Before we all went our own ways we had one last meal of French Toast.
Revolution
Promo Pitch for possible contract with the History Channel. Michal Finegold directed & I drew all the storyboards. We were in the top 5 entries.
"Animatic" of Susan B. Anthony’s address to Judge Ward Hunt reaches across time to women and men today, calling them to unite and continue the fight for equal rights."
Dream Train
Often my dreams are so vivid, like a movie that I can't help but write about them when I wake. Well one morning, I thought I should draw it all out. So this was my dream.
Film Studies
Sometimes I'll study films, here are some examples.
This movie was so creepy & yet such great camera work.
I focused of Continuity and line of action for the opening sequence.
I quickly captured some of my favorite shots from Kick Ass, The American & Iron Giant.
