I recently helped my friend ship his indie game The Fall 2: Unbound. Working with him and the rest of the Over The Moon Games crew was a great experience. I also finished a contract with The Coalition where I was given a great opportunity to animate on Gears of War 4. This gave me a chance to work more with motion capture, key frame animation, cameras, Maya and the Unreal 4 engine.
In my spare time I enjoy playing hockey, figure drawing, sculpting in Zbrush, digital painting and lately I've also been messing around with Copic markers and inks.
My wife and I recently took a trip to the Big Island, Hawaii. I created a rather strange video of the experience.
