Today was a good day!
Monday, October 26, 2009

Well everyday is a great day!
Been really busy ever since I landed my first time studio job here at SPIN VFX and I'm learning tons from time management, my workflow, and meeting new people!

First off, 'DirtGirl World', the show that I'm helping out with, has aired on CBC on October 5th; I'm a bit late on posting. :D It can be seen at 7 and 11:30 in the morning so get up and join our world! There's a trailer on their site, click the image below.



Also, I totally forgot about this until someone asked me the other day. Next month I've also had the pleasure being part of an animated short film titled 'Live Music'. It premieres and opens for 'Planet 51' on November 20th!!! I plan to go back home that day to celebrate with friends and family; should be GREAT! Hit the image for the trailer.



And how can I forget about Nuit Blanche!!!
This was my first time and was it ever F-U-N-tastic. I mostly stayed at a free life drawing session that went from 7PM til 4AM!!! But between those times we also went to learn some dancing such as salsa, foxtrot, tango, and its harder then it looks.

In the meantime, have fun and be good!
Cheeio!!!

IMDB
Wednesday, August 12, 2009

So after checking up some names on IMDB, I'd figure why not try mine. And BAM its on file.
I know its the World Wide Web and anyone can create/hack/post anything they want but I had nothing to do with it.

I'm geeking out right now :P

B-U-S-Y
Sunday, July 12, 2009

Ever since I started as a Character Animator at Spin, its been keeping me very busy which is nice!
First off are some life drawings from Toronto's City Hall; kind of rusty but it keeps me relaxed. I'll try to be doing this every weekend under the SUN!

And second of all, check out our Secret Agent thread over at CG Talk. Its a challenge a bunch of us at work are teaming up in. Its going to be tough with our work schedule and this...wish us good luck! :D

Also, as soon as MASS ANIMATION announces the theatrical release date of the short film I was part of...I'll let you know!!!

Thanks for coming by and until then, keep practicing in whatever you do and reach beyond the stars!!!
CHEERS!

BIG NEWS!
Monday, February 23, 2009

First off I've completed my shot for Mass Animation and can't wait to see it! Its in post-production at the moment and soon enough there will be a rough edit of the short film, Live Music! I receive on screen credit and some cash! =] Yair, the director is looking for distributors so it can be released in theaters before the feature presentatio, how cool would that be!

And the biggest news of all is I got a job at Spin VFX Pro as CG Character Animator! Its only been 2 weeks going into my 3rd and LOVING IT! Even though there's quite a load of work, I don't mind it at all. Funny thing too is that the last two guys I worked with on the Pepsi Recycling project are my bosses once again =]

And also working with the ever so talented Matt Scott, I've gone to school with him and learning tons just being at a studio.

And the 2nd pic is an image of what we're working on, its different in a great way because there's nothing out like it. The show is called Dirtgirl World .

I'll also post some communte sketches if I can find a scanner.
Until then take it easy and work hard because your dream will come true.

Cheers!

Mass Animation!
Wednesday, January 28, 2009

So the other day I was checking my email right before I was heading to bed and was notified one of my shots for the short film Live Music was selected to be in the final FILM!!! I totally forgot about it when my first 6 shots didn't make the cut but you never know =] And I couldn't sleep that night but it was worth it!

Take it easy guys,
Cheers!
