I made a book to learn animation by actually moving stuff on activity pages! www.stopmotionbook.com It's a digital download so you can print it at home :)

I return to this cut of Bresson films by Kogonada often. I've animated a lot of hands in my career but nothing with this amount of story and character. I do what I can with 15-45 frames of repeatable gameplay action but I'll sometimes just fall back on making pleasing shapes youtu.be/uk_yKYhBjKA?...

Took a pass at my resume for this first time in a few years and was struggling to get a shipped game onto the first page. I always try to keep this thing tight and not multiple pages but things have been wild.

My last reel is from 2018 which doesn't put me in a great position if I need to look for new work. Since then I've worked on 3 canceled projects, 3 demo pitches for startups, and a handful of contracts. Some of my favorite teams never got to ship a game. Some of my favorite work I can't share.
