Was amazing to learn this video won a Clio Sports Entertainment award.
The Las Vegas Raiders seized a quote from their coach about what makes the DNA of the Raiders. This anthology piece shows exactly that going back all the way to their early days.
We had a quick 6-week turn around to pull off this project, including editorial of the content, design, animation, and sound finishing. But the small and mighty team worked magic for Epic Arc, and the response from the crowds was epic!

Process breakdown reel of how the Low Country titles came together. Lots and lots of techniques used in all these shots. Plenty of #xparticles sims, some speed tree, and lots of #c4d and #redshift.

“We want creepy vibes, but otherwise, do your thing.” That’s what the director asked for in the kickoff of this project. The trust was amazing, and invited some of the best collaboration I’ve experienced in this business. And it paid off.
The opening titles for “Low Country: The Murdaugh Dynasty” is one of my favorite projects I've worked on. Mood was the key… constantly working to take a normally simple scene and ramp up the creep factor. And I got to stretch my 3d and simulation wings on this one as well.
I plan to follow this up with a breakdown/process edit from this project so you can see some behind the scenes!

Working with @legend.labs is always a treat. So I was stoked with they approached me to work up an rebrand video for the America East conference for the NCAA.
This rebrand puts emphasis on the focus and grit of these student athletes and university. As one of the mid-major conferences, the America East occupies an unforgiving part of the country - cold, rough terrain, isolated. But these athletes are up at dawn, and work hard to be at the elite level of their sports.
This video exudes this grit. The design centers around an aggressive edit punctuated with graphics that celebrate the new brand, and give an edgy feel to the school. The spots keystones the rebrand firmly in the new voice, vision, and tone.
It was a fun one to work on, and hope y’all enjoy!

Got to flex some light-streaks and data vibes on this spot for Spectrum and their S1 platform release. Admittedly, the spot is a bit corporate…but that doesn’t mean you don’t always adhere to Rule No. 1: Make it Cool.
We went through a lot of ideation for this spot to arrive at this look. From abstract worlds of glass, to macro-focus on infinite data swirling though the room. Spectrum really liked the idea of the data being “sourced” so the final product tells that story.
Hope you enjoy the particle magic!

It was an amazing experience to conceptualize and build a title sequence for one of the greatest albums of all time… the main titles for the Michael Jackson, ‘Thriller 40’ documentary. Thriller, being one of the greatest albums of all time, offered a ton of narrative options to play with. But the documentary directors were clear: this is about the recording of they album, not just the music. We took this concept and ran.
Armed with Cinema 4D, Redshift, and a plethora of #XParticles simulations, we embarked on a journey to visualize the transformation of a golden voice onto the grooves of a historic vinyl album. The result? A visual feast where golden particles dance and weave, encapsulating the essence of Jackson’s voice in every shimmer. I’m thrilled with how this project unfolded!

Marshmallows and Cheese Aliens... buckle up for this wild ride! 🚀 As a small crew of motion graphic artists, we embarked on a mission to bring Ryan Summers’ insane dream to life. Picture this: face-melting moments, cheese monsters devouring people, and a ton of creative chaos!
We seamlessly integrated multiple render engines—Octane, Sketch and Toon, and C4D standard—into every scene. From cheese-melting particle simulations to crafting organic creature rigs and diving into PBR cloth simulations, it was a visual rollercoaster requiring a broad range of technical integration.
But let’s talk about the face-melting scene. We fused character rigs, a mind-blowing particle simulation, and physics-based dynamics to deliver the ultimate melting effect. All of this to channel our inner Indiana Jones for that perfect extra punch to the madness!
Behind the scenes, we mixed mocap solutions, juggled multiple rigs, and put our creativity to the test. This project was a blast, teaching me more than words can express. 🚀✨ Ready to dive into the world of Marshmallows and Cheese Aliens?

The second set of styleframes for the CAS project that I’d shared round 1 previously. The client asked that each scientific breakthrough act more as a single node within their “fabric of innovation”. This was closer, but still not the final look executed for the video. Lots of #redshift3d , #xparticles , and #c4d through this.

Fun piece I got to do a few years back for FitBit’s tracker aimed for children. The mission: make the trackers feel fun, kiddish, and tell the story through them. Was fun to bring some personality into these!

SOUND ON! Motion test for a piece we did for the NFL Draft a few years back. The test was how to use Sound Effectors to drive the light illuminations of this sculpture through redshift.
This shoot for this project….. didn’t go as planned, and what went from an on side, gfx enhancement job turned into a full-on cut world build for multiple shots in a 2 week timeframe. Will share the piece, but this test was the rapid proof that we needed to execute the work. @maxonvfx@maxonredshift .

Want to know how I made this?? I was fortunate to contribute a tutorial to @schoolofmotion to share some knowledge with the community around how I built this thread stitching effect. And while techinque is big, I try to also share tons of foundations along the way to make any artist that watches learn quite a bit. I hope you'll give it a watch and enjoy!!
