Crab Walk Cycle

Program
After Effects

This short test was my first 2D walk cycle! In hindsight I should have chosen something with fewer legs..

I used Illustrator to create the assets and then moved everything to After Effects. Duik Angela was used to rig and animate everything. This was a challenging but fun project that pushed my skills and taught me a lot about character rigging.

Desert Animation

Program
Cinema 4D

This project assignment had strict constraints and directions. Create a futuristic building made from the letter Q, use a pre-approved colour pallet and include a whimsical element (simulation effects).

For my second attempt at Cinema 4D animation, I had to quickly learn and apply repeaters, animation fields and mograph simulation effects.

Maniac Title Sequence

Program
After Effects

Netflix’s 2018 show Maniac is my favourite television show of all time. I love the concept and jumped at the chance to create a title sequence. I wanted it to mimic the aesthetics of old infomercials with the saturated colours and heavy CRT overlay.

The show has great cinematography and story, I can’t recommend it enough!

Canada Goose Rotoscope

Program
Procreate Dreams

There is a large field by my house that is filled with Canadian geese during the migratory seasons. A big part of the changing seasons is watching the large V’s cross the skies.

I wanted to create a rough rotoscope showing them flying from three different views. With the folk music underneath (Hozier’s De Selby part 1) I thought it turned out pretty good for my first attempt at cel rotoscoping.
