Boom! Chrome Away From Home

Here is a spot I worked on at the beginning of the year for Google Chrome.  Check it out!



It was produced by the folks over at Superfad and directed by Nando Costa, with cinematography by Bryce Fortner.

It was quick, fun job working with a great crew!

I'll post some behind the scene pictures soon!

Oops I Did It Again!/Share Our Streets

Well I did it again...Its been months since I last posted.  Once again a busy work schedule has kept me from posting on a regular basis. I won't make any empty promises but from here on out I will try to keep up with posting as best I can.

The great thing about being busy is that there will be lots of things to post about in the near future.  I've been working on some really exciting projects that I look forward to sharing.

First up is a series of bike safety PSAs I worked on last year for the city of Long Beach, CA.

Here are two of my favorites. Take a look!





The project was I lot of fun!  I served as the Animation Director and principle stop motion animator.  I got to work with the beautiful and talented Ms. Laura Yilmaz who both designed and directed the spots!  We had a small but dedicated crew that was loads of fun to work with!  I'll be posting some behind the scenes photos and more of the spots soon!

(And I'll do my best to keep the posts coming!)

Stay tuned!

Christmas in July!

Happy Birthday America!

In celebration here's the last of the Happy Honda Days 2010 commercials I worked on @ Buck last year.

I forgot to post this one last Christmas but what better time to post it than now?! Its one of my favorites!




And how about some Behind The Scenes pics form another Christmas themed project I worked on, Community!

Enjoy!

Animating in a Winter Wonderland.

Acura Transformation BTS Pics

I've been seeing the Acura spot I animated on last year, pretty regularly on the TV these days.

Here are some behind the scenes pics of the 3 day, all night shoot.

Enjoy!

Lead Animator Kevin Glick double checks his marks.

Carls Jr. BTS Pics

Two weeks ago I got to work on another Carl's Jr web spot over at Bix Pix with Director Karni Baghdikian. This time as Animation Director.


I'll be sure to post it when its finished.


In the meantime here are some behind the scenes pics from the previous Carls Jr. web spots for the Philly Cheesteak Burger.


The job was fun but I'm not sure how I feel about the burger... 
(To be fair, I haven't actually tried it.)

Lead animator Nancy Parczyk prepares for a shot.

Happy Honda Days BTS Pics

As promised here are some some behind the scenes photos from the Happy Honda Days spots.  It was a fun job with  a great crew!


Enjoy!

The animation team preps for a shot.

Make the holidays even happier!

The holidays are over but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy another Happy Honda Days spot!

Check it out!

I'll be posting some behind the scenes from these spots shortly...keep an eye out for it!

Happy New Year everyone!

Unusual Details/Great Design

Here's a Target commercial from a couple years back.


Don't blink or you might miss the animation!
          
Shot this one with Director Floria Sigismondi and Believe Media. 
Really fun shoot with a great crew!

I don't want just a burger!

Here's a spot from a few months ago for Carl's Jr. and their Philly Cheesesteak Burger.

Its one of three spots I worked on over @ BixPix with director Karni Baghdikian and lead animator Nancy Parczyk.

Small crew that was laid back and fun to work with.  It was also the first time I animated Legos professionally.  I think it turned out pretty well.

Now that's what I'm talking about!

...if I wait for a holiday...

Here's another one of the pixilated Honda spots from Buck!



It was a lotta work but a lotta fun.

I AM Loving It!

Here's A McDonald's commercial I worked on briefly a few months ago.

As always, it was a pleasure to work with the fellas over @ Screen Novelties!

Transformation BTS

Here's a fun behind the scenes clip of the Acura "Transformation" spot.



A couple of long cold night shoots, but it was fun!

Transform and roll out!

Here's another pixilated car commercial I worked on a few months back.

RPA was also behind this one along with Biscuit and director Christopher Riggert.

It was great working with my friend Animation Supervisor Helder K. Sun and lead animator Kevin Glick.

Holiday Oh Holiday!

So first off, here is a brand new Honda commercial I worked on last month!

It is one of four pixilated commercials for the season brought to you by the folks over at RPA and Buck TV.

The job was a blast and I finally got to work with Animation Supervisor Jamie Caliri. Other animators on the project included lead animator Madame Sylvie Trouve and Monsier Fred Caron of the Canadian animation collective La Moustache as well as Señor Matt Manning.
