Visual Effects Society

I am honored to be inducted into the Visual Effects Society (VES) this year. Anyone who knows me as far back as the compuserve days knows community is incredibly important to me. Unfortunately I've been witness to a lot of my communities being disassembled over the last decade, so I hope to spend my next few years trying to contribute to and create new communities to replace them. Looking forward to being an active member in the VES and many others.

Making Alien Terrain In Gaea

Going along with my game demo teaser yesterday, just posted a quick tutorial showing how I made the landscape for the demo using quadspinner's gaea. The software is tons of fun: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8p0BKDl4fD0

Testudo Demo Teaser

Been working on this little schmup videogame demo for awhile now in unnreal engine, feel I've made enough progress to post a WIP. Not sure if this will go beyond a demo, but it's been tons of fun to work on. Watch with sound for commentary
