One of the most satisfying moments early in my design career came when I translated an idea previously just in my head and on paper into a 3D modeling software. It wasn't just a matter of redrawing the lines as I had on the page digitally, but a full reinterpretation of form with an added dimension. Time spent pouring over texture: reflection, imperfection, depth, warmth. The resulting photorealistic render of exactly the image in my mind was truly gratifying.

In an introductory call we discuss the intentions of your project. I want to try my best to see what's in your head! Whether it's reference images, a mood-board or a polished drawing that just needs someone to bring it to life, any level of specificity to get this process started is a step in the right direction.

The more technical side of the discussion comes next. Is this model going to be used for computer-generated product images? Is it intended to go into prototyping and 3D printing? Architectural Visualization? Game design? Archival work?

These choices early on dictate the program in which the model will be constructed and rendered, tailored to the individual project. I have facility in programs geared for many different kinds of design and want choose the right tool for the job.
