From long-form 3d animation and 3d / live action integration to compositing, motion graphics, and finishing, I have a wealth of experience in the digital online/offline, broadcast and production design spaces. Working with major broadcast clients like ESPN, Discovery networks, BBC America, and commercial advertising clients like Carnival Cruise lines, Volkswagen, Pillsbury and Mattel.






Video post production and MG/FX.
As part of the pre-launch for Deluxe Corps "Small Business Revolution" campaign, selected clients were profiled in a short film meant to showcase the passion of small business owners. Using disparate types of small business owners to display the richness and independance across the United States. Shot between documentary style narratives, and short film, commercial style, they captured what is the backbone of our country.

Motion Graphics and Animation are a great way to quickly visually communicate sometimes hard to depict ideas, concepts and value proposition. They easily integrate with live action and retain the flexibility to accommodate script changes and information updates.
Created for Meditech, a short video for use online was created to demonstrate the feature set and use case for the mobile app "App Data Room" Motion graphics were used to retain flexibility with a fluid script, as well as visually depict a very broad feature set.

As part of the launch of its new payment solution, Deluxe Corp needed a suite of marketing promotional videos. "Introducing the e-check" was created to be used as the splash screen on a number of interactive kiosks used at industry events, as well as a permanent installation in HQ's lobby for visitors, a combination of live action, motion graphics and 3d animation.

Created for Oticon, this was a sizzle piece used at their yearly "OticonNEXT" conference in Orlando FL. To communicate a wide variety of information including value propositions, product feature/benefit, hand-drawn animation was shot live on set and then integrated digital with 2d visual effects and 3d animation.

Created for Bachmans and their strategic partner Scotts, a series of educational pieces were created for use on both interactive, educational kiosks, as well as the digital signage networks used in all their locations. Motion graphics were chosen to give the content more shelf life, easily updated as products, packaging and naming changed.
