Easter's Reason

Recently I have had the humbling opportunity to start a new job working in the Visual Effects Department of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I have been working on various tasks like sky replacement, equipment paint out, additive digital makeup, and even some digital set extensions.

I studied the field of animation and visual effects because I am passionate about animations and visual effects that are created to educate, encourage and uplift.

 I hope you will enjoy this short film celebrating the reason for Easter.

UVU Press Release


Here is a short blip with Jordan and myself on Good Morning Utah,  I don't think any one saw it live, but at least now you can check out the video.

Animated History of Aviation

This has been my main project for the last 9 months at UVU Aviation.  Last Friday was my last day and I hit render just as I walked out the door.

I hope you will enjoy this piece portraying some of the history of aviation; leading up to were the school is today.

Rob Guest, Preston Powell, Paris Miller, Nathan Stoker, Michael Batie, and Adam Evens also contributed, from planning to rendering; it was definitely a collaborative piece.

Twin Star Landing

When I first finished this render, but boss asked, "Have you rendered this scene yet?"  Probably the worst thing any one could say.  After Doing some revision and trying a few new things I re-rendered it.  When I showed it to my family my brother asked, "Was this shot filmed at the airport?"  Probably the nicest thing any one could say to me!!

I know its not perfect but I'm glad to know I'm making progress.
