Cairo Paris and London

Journal Entry: Mon Apr 14, 2008, 1:07 PM
Wow, I sure am terrible about updating my journals here. Anyway, here we are. It's April already.

I'm working away on tons of different projects. I've been doing a lot of illustration but some animation work too. I'm finishing up some motion graphics for a commercial which is fun and starting work on an opening for a TV show. Working from home has been great. I miss my friends at Pixar (I left in October to move back to the east coast to be closer to family again) but I really don't miss the work very much at all. I liked working on big films, but my part was so small and technical it's nice to be doing pure creative work once again.

In other news I'm doing some traveling in the near future. I'm off to Cairo in a couple of weeks to visit some friends and do some consulting at a studio there. And then in June I'm off to speak at the Game Developer's Conference in Paris ( [link] ). Let me know if any of you are in that section of the world and plan on attending. I'll be giving 2 talks, one short one and then a longer master class on lighting for film. I might get to go to London too to consult with a client there, so that would be great. Ah... travel... it's so nice to be free to do it again.

Oh.. and I updated my personal webpage too. It's kind of slow, but it get's the job done. Now with a demo reel too. Ooooh!

Until next time!

A new addition to the watched list!

Oh wow. Whilst your history there was a damn good insight (yea, pardon the french), That final paragraph there filled me with inspiration. No wonder I'm not you fan just because of your talent, you're an inspiration, friend! Thank you kindly!
I really hope someday I'll meet you, or better still, work together. You have given me an infinite amount of help for the past 2 months, and for that I take my hat off to thee, sir!! :)

It all started with tons of drawing as a kid... nonstop it was a passion. I always knew I wanted to do art professionally. So after high school I traveled for 2 years internationally and then came back and went to college in Orlando Florida. I graduated in 1997 with a degree in Digital Media with a focus on Computer Animation. At the time Virtual Reality and CDrom authoring was hot stuff but I focused myself on animation as I knew movies was where i wanted to be. I got my first job in Chicago at Big Idea Productions as a digital modeler/texture artist building characters, sets and props for the animated kid's series "Veggie Tales". During my 3 years there I really learned a ton about real animation production and professional art, and I got to branch out a bit into concept design too. Then I worked at another small studio in Atlanta for 3 years on the film Delgo that was never released. While there I became the Lighting Supervisor as well as a CG generalist (3D modeling, texturing, rigging, concept design, effects, matte painting, compositing). In 2003 I moved with my family to California where I worked as a Lighting Technical Director at Pixar Animation Studios , working on the films The Incredibles, Cars, Ratatouille and Wall-E. And most recently (5 months ago) I made the choice to move closer to family again and leave the large studio world for awhile, and I have started my own freelance studio.

Does this help give you a better picture? My advice is for you to draw like crazy, create as much as you can and always be passionate about it. Your art will increase. Then find a good school where you can be challenged by other artists to help you grow beyond the boundaries of your own imagination.

You've helped me so much already, but I love to pester the wiser for info! :) Can you tell me about your careers, and your course of education and your qualifications? I am considering a career as a concept artist, or at least in art for games/movies, and I wanted to know what one needs to become as successful as you are.

I love the amount of storytelling you bring to each picture you paint. I mean its like the vivid imaginary scenes that form in your head while reading a gripping book, you've got that amazing spellbinding effect in every deviation from your gallery
