Concrete Jungle Co-Op Game

2011-12-13T17:02:00.000-08:00

New Concept Art for a Co-Op game idea I have in mind.

Now if only I can find and talk to someone who can help me create it.

I promise it'll be worth it

Crazy Quesadillas

2011-12-08T17:34:00.000-08:00

A buddy of mine is a chef and asked me to draw something up as a logo.

A crazy quesadilla running at the camera with his tongue out as gooey cheese is coming off the top of his head like "hair" with ingredients such as shrimp, carne, sliced muchrooms, and little bits of corn with "crazy faces"

Bug N Ro

2011-09-23T16:07:00.000-07:00

I had done a sketch of a Baby-like Robot called Ro, and his bio-mechanical insect like friend called Bug. You can kind of see a faint outline of another thing behind Ro

(its suppose to be a giant frog) as he is learning how to walk.

Its still on in the concept stage and Im in the process of making the design digital. Bug N Ro

are bio mechanical robots that crashland on earth in a spaceship in the shape of an egg. Bug N Ro are actually from a different planet where robots are like humans they are born, grow and learn.

Only these two are not on their home planet, but on planet Earth.

Concrete Jungle's- Heroes

2011-08-24T02:34:00.000-07:00

Here are my new designs for the characters Im working on for this video game I hope to one day make. All the anthropomorphic characters were once humans but through an evil mans plan they were transformed. Each character will have their own specialties.

Covering Air, Land, Underground and the Ocean.

The Rhino- Is Ray Stone a former police officer, escorting a prisoner to a "special prison"

In front is an Electric Eel- named Wyatt Watt a former teacher with a PHd in psych and hired to prove the escorted prisoners innocence (also the leader of this motley crew)

On the Right is a Meerkat- named Alex Payne former hollywood pyrotechnic and explosive expert, framed and sent to prison on the account of murder.

The Flying one is a Peregrine Falcon named Eddie Peregrine - A Hired pilot to fly these three passengers to the "special prison" Also an old elementary friend of Alex Payne. Both having not seen each other over many years.

Concrete Jungle

2011-07-14T23:04:00.000-07:00

Concept Art for a game idea that I had when I was a kid. It would be a co-op, split screen game in third person. Genre Action Adventure.

Some background- Top middle: Falcon, Right: Rhino, Bottom middle: Meerkat, Left: Electric Eel

A story of conspiracy and sci-fi,

Four genetically altered men imprisoned in a covert maximum security prison, trying to clear their names and stop a tyrannical warden from achieving his ultimate evil goals

Dark Passenger

2011-06-27T14:11:00.000-07:00

While listening to Dexter's audio book, the main character would talk about a dark passenger. This is what I imagined when Dexter would describe the dark passenger

2010-02-22T17:37:00.000-08:00

This was my first green screen experience, I REALLY enjoyed doing this and wish we had more time in the class and more lectures on compositing and the green screen process, because I would have liked to add some more effects that was missing in this video.

I am a huge of fan of AVATAR: The Last Airbender, and having had a daydream about "elemental bending", it gave me the perfect opportunity to use the green screen process. I hope you enjoy.

3D Camera Techniques

2009-08-20T21:51:00.000-07:00

I did this video for a class assignment I had a lot of fun working on it. It involves 3d camera techniques. You will see stuff that is recognizable such as a symbol and characters that do not belong to me, however the characters were part of the inspiration and it was part of the project and story.

I hope you enjoy

Demo Reel

2009-05-23T17:23:00.000-07:00

This is my 2009 demo reel. I worked on a class project for Princess and the Pea and did most of the boards for the class project. I also did an original pepsi commercial storyboard. At the end is a cartoon idea I created about a boy named Beto. For the episodes I had the challenge of trying to complete the story in 16 panels so they were very rushed in my opinion. The first teaser episode was 23 panels, the second teaser was 14 panels and the third was 17.

Let me know what you think.
Enjoy

Imaginary Help

2009-04-22T15:08:00.000-07:00

This is an assignment where we had to do a storyboard where we were only limited to do 35 panels. My story is about a boy who is a afraid of the dark, and his imagination runs wild.

Dazed and Confused_ Lipsync

Ben-Arachnid

2008-11-21T17:51:00.000-08:00

I tried to create a character when the Ben 10 series ended and heard a new Ben 10: Alien Force was coming out. I wanted to try and create an alien that could be from a planet where intelligent humanoid insects dominated the planet.

"Ben Tennyson has been(Ben) an arachnid."

Mouse DragonRider

This animation was on in 3D for my first animation class, it has sound , so make sure to adjust the volume. Its a short animation, of a mouse riding on a dragonfly, it's just movement with no rigging.
with a little camera movement but mostly just camera placement.

Chalk Walk
