This video is a demo reel exemplifying skills and projects completed in the last year. All works were created using Adobe After Effects, Adobe Illustrator, Procreate, and Cinema 4D.

Introduction: Balloon letters were created using simulation rigging for inflation in Cinema 4D and then composited in Adobe After Effects to give them a stylized yet smooth look.

Skateboarding Rotoscope Animation: A commissioned animated clip for 'Seven Minutes in Heaven' a video by Zak Molinar. This was created by lowering the frame count to 10 fps and rotoscoping frame by frame in Procreate then compositing in After Effects

Beats by Dre Spec Ad: I began by modeling the speaker in Cinema 4D, including details like the inner speaker cones and cups in case I wanted to take the speaker covers off to reveal the inside of the speaker. I then animated the speaker and added multiple camera angles rendering out varying shots of the scene with differing movements. Once all shots were rendered out I edited and composited the shots in After Effects to create a cohesive video matching the energy and branding of Beats by Dre

Carlson Law Firm map: Commissioned to create an animated map of Texas to showcase the differing branches of the Carlson Law Firm. I built the assets in Adobe Illustrator to fit the client's branding. Starting with the first location in Killeen, Texas I then animated a pin with text for each location popping up in order of opening with a line leading from the original location to show their growth.

Green Rubix Cube: Modeled and animated in Blender to experiment with an alternate 3D program I followed a specific color pattern and prompt from the Instagram page @mondayschallenge for inspiration

Brother by Meat Wave blip: Mimicing Radiohead's Kid A blips I tasked myself with creating a blip for Meat Wave's song Brother. Taking inspiration from a family tree and using the song's lyrics I animated in After Effects using Trim Paths and camera movement to showcase the growth of the family tree as different lines were sung.

Logo Reveal Montage: This portion highlights some logo reveals I have worked on, both as spec projects and for clients. Techniques used include masking, trim paths, and track mattes.

Coca-Cola spec ad: Creating a spec ad based on a panoramic styleboard I had previously designed, I aimed to have the ad be a continuous tracking shot. Taking inspiration from the Texas weather where rain can be condensed in specific areas, such as the enigma of it raining in your front yard but not the back, I thought of the front yard rain as life without Coca-Cola and the sunny backyard as life after you open a cool bottle of Coke.
