This is a reel I made a few weeks ago of the motion & 3d work I have done so far at VFS. All of the individual projects are on my website under the motion & 3d categories.

This is the magazine cover that I made for a contest for Print Magazine. The theme for the contest was Design Culture Youth. I wanted the cover to represent the process of conceptualizing and also show the young designers impact on design; something that has been around for a very long time. That is why I chose to draw the lightbulb on a stained parchment background.

This is an intro I made for a DVD menu for a short film called The Devil and Sarah Silverspoon. I created all of the assets in Illustrator and then animated in After Effects.

For 3d class I recreated the Disney Pictures ident in Cinema 4d and After Effects.

I played around in 3d class the other day with using an image to illuminate a scene and got an interesting texture appearing on all of my shapes. So I created an ice cube robot.

This is a lookframe for the music video I am working on this term with Emily, Amber, Justin and Carla. It shows a glimpse of what we would like our finish product to look like. The dolls were hand made and we shot all of our scenes at Carlas grandmas house. The finish product should be up by the end of April.

For 3d class this week we had to create a logo for a sports station. I recreated an ident done Chili, an Extreme Sports station. I modeled all of the TVs and created the scene in Cinema 4d and added the videos in After Effects.

For 3d class last week we had to remake a music TV stations logo. This is my remake of the 3d MTV Motel Logo, you can see the one the original one at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRdsq5jBZmU. I did it all using Cinema 4d .

This is my final piece from 3d class last term. We had to reproduce the same look and 5 seconds of animation that was originally done by Tronic for a series of Target commercials.

This term in motion class we are doing a music video for a band called The Paper Cranes. They are a Victoria based band with an indie sound. We are doing their song “I’ll Love You Till My Veins Explode.” Justin, Emily, Carla, and Amber are in my group for the project. So far everything is going really good, we are in production this weekend and are currently putting together an animatic. This is the moodboard for our project
