Kameleon Logo

This is only part of a 30-second commercial I am making for my 3D Animation II class. The company, Kameleon Jewelry, is a real company, but I am not doing this in affiliation with the company -- just a project for a class.

I won't even go into how long it took to do this 10-second logo bit. It wasn't difficult or complicated, but it was time consuming and arduous. At least it's done.

I will, no doubt, tweak this over the next two weeks before it's due, but the hard part is done, and I'm quite happy with the product you see here. Overall, I feel like I'm getting better and more efficient with 3D, which is very encouraging to me.

You can view a larger video of this file here.

You can purchase Kameleon Jewelry from their website here. I own a ring from this company -- The Eye of Horus, which is unfortunately discontinued. But they have a lot of original things, primarily sterling silver.

Zombie Video

Here's my second assignment for Video class -- a classic zombie horror. I kept Ned the Dead and Chiller Theater in mind when making this (if anyone's familiar with him/that show).

The point of this assignment was to create original music and/or sound. So all the sounds and music in this video are completely original and made by yours truly -- I used Reason for the most part.

Enjoy!

Thanks for watching. :)

3D Animation Project

This is my first video for my 3D Animation class.  I'm very pleased with the outcome.  The assignment was to create a cabinet of some sort with drawers and swinging doors that open and close.  I modeled this after the buffet table we have in our house in WI.  

Unfortunately, I can only upload a small version of the actual file.  The original file is over 400MB, but the version you see here is only 2.4 MB.  As a result, a considerable amount of detail is lost in the woodwork, colors and shadows.  Overall it looks "washed over," and it's not as rich as the original file, but what can you do, right?  I'm still proud to show it.  My teacher really liked it too. :)

Happy Little Boozer

Here's my first project for Video class -- a music video.  I chose the song "Happy Little Boozer" by Finnish folk metallers Korpiklanni.

Pocket Knife

This is my second project for 3D Modeling -- I modeled it after my own pocket knife, a Benchmade Mel Pardue design.  I'm not completely dissatisfied with it.

A Bottle of Scotch

Here's my first 3D Modeling assignment -- a glass bottle of some kind.  

I'm pretty pleased with it, being my first project.  My next project will be more intricate -- a pocket knife.

METAL!

So this is my final project for Typography 2, Spring 2009.  Not much to say.  The poster speaks for itself.  It's completely kick ass.

Sorry you can't really see the details.  The image is 48"x36" in reality, and it gets all fuzzy once I increase the size in jpg format.
