2012 Wrap Up
To summarize a passage from Wherever You Go, There You Are, if we hope to go somewhere then we must first step from where we are currently standing to move in that direction, but if we don't know where we are standing and starting from, we could potential walk in...
Build. Make. Hack. Grow.
Earlier this year I spent several months in San Francisco working with the great group of guys at DIY. I blogged on how that came about earlier. After I completed the animation at DIY, they still had to score the piece and wait for the right...
NASA
I loved this project even though it was very short lived. From the time I created my pitch to final render was about two days. I really enjoy the process of brainstorming an idea in my head and then going out and making that thing that used to only live in my...
PSYOP
Before coming to work at Moonbot Studios, where I am now, I was working at psyop in LA. It was a bit surreal because I can remember only a few years ago I found their website with all of their work and was very impressed. It was at a time when I had no clue how that...

Hang Gliding Yosemite
Pitter-patter of rubber soles running over coarse granite with the light jingle of aluminum bouncing along in unison and then whoosh, flying over one of the most picturesque landscapes that planet earth has to offer, hang gliding over...
Learned to sky dive
So today, in one day, I learned to sky dive! I got 8 jumps in and passed all the requirements for each jump so now I can jump on my own without supervision of an instructor. The next goal is to total 25 jumps and get my A license. After 200 jumps I could start flying...
How to: Animated GIF
Nothing is more frustrating to me when someone takes 15 minutes to explain something that could be done in 1 minute. Recently, I was making some animated GIFs and looked up tutorials online that were very slow, the...

I recently won a contest over at Tongal in a new format they've created. This contest was only open to pitches from the top 100 members of Tongal (based off of previous winnings). I was 42nd at the time I submitted my pitch but now I should jump up a couple spots....
