2024 Demo Reel

It’s been a journey from Oakland to San Francisco since my last demo reel in 2017. While that reel predominantly showcased my proficiency in After Effects and Premier, I’ve since expanded my toolkit to include Blender. Learning Blender has not only opened up new creative avenues, but has also sort of allowed me to elevate my projects to new heights of visual storytelling and motion graphics. Radical! Hope you like it.

Ads

Skeletons, Morbs, and Tsathoggua Dancing

Are you a fan of Skin Crawl 2, the comic book series by Skinner? If you are, you’ll love these two tshirt video ads we made in Blender 3.5. Featuring the Morbs character and Tsathoggua, the giant toad god, these ads will make your skin crawl with excitement. Join us as we take a closer look at these creepy and cool t-shirts.

The first tshirt features Morbs, the mischievous and mysterious character from Skin Crawl 2. In the ad, a skeleton dances with style as it wears the Morbs tshirt. The dancing skeleton, combined with the eerie audio track, creates a perfect atmosphere for fans of horror and dark humor. The voiceover was done by me, reading Skinner’s own text, and the music and sound effects were created by me as well, with Skinner’s direction.

Skin Crawl – ‘Morbs’ T-shirt ad

The second tshirt ad features Tsathoggua, the giant toad god who has a prominent role in one of the Skin Crawl 2 stories. Tsathoggua is depicted in all his glory on the t-shirt, and the skeleton dancer in this ad pays tribute to this fearsome deity. Again, the voiceover, music, and sound effects were created by me with Skinner’s direction, and the visuals were made using Blender 3.5.

Skin Crawl ‘Tsathoggua’ – Tshirt Ad

In conclusion, if you’re a fan of Skin Crawl 2 and love tshirts with a creepy vibe, these ads are perfect for you. With their eye-catching visuals and creepy audio, they’re sure to grab people’s attention. Plus, they’re high-quality and made with top-notch animation software. They feature Morbs and Tsathoggua, two of the most popular characters from the series. We hope you enjoy watching them as much as we enjoyed making them.

Illustration

Free Stippling Brush Set

I have an upcoming illustration project which will require some stippling brushes. Therefore I decided to make a Photoshop brush set with 4 stippling brushes of different scattering amounts and radiuses. Consequently, I figured it should also include a couple of line art brushes to go along with the stipples. I made this quick promo piece for fun and to test out the brushes and boy are they fun to use! So here’s the set with the 8 Photoshop brushes for you to enjoy as well:

La Casaca de Chewbacca

La Casaca de Chewbacca – music video project for Los Descuajeringados del Norte, a parallel music project to Los Huaycos. Made in Blender 2.90 with downloaded 3D assets.

The goal was to quickly make a fully 3D animated video, so no raytracing, this is all rendered in the ‘realtime’ rendering engine, Eevee.

That is not a Wookie model, it’s a human model but with added hair particles.
