Sneak peak! This past weekend I had the opportunity (and the pleasure) of working on a music video shoot with a couple of great friends. There's still plenty of work to be done but the shoot has wrapped!
Edge City v1.2
Inspired by Alex Andreev's "Edge City" piece, which you can find here.
Rendered in C4D's Physical renderer without GI. Environment created in World Machine, while the city and blimp props were modeled in Cinema. Created and pumped this test render out over a 24 hour period. Still some noise in the reflections to buff out. Hopefully I'll get to run this through Octane in the future!
New Demo Reel
Song is "Just My Type" by Saint Motel
Dome Thing
Modeled in World Machine and Cinema 4D, Rendered in Octane. Inspired by the concept art "Dome" by Syllo Credits: Art Director - CJ Cook
New Logo
Created using Cinema 4D and World Machine, rendered with Octane, comped in After Effects.
Hannibal title sequence
All assets and simulation created by me entirely in Cinema 4D and rendered in Octane. This title piece was made for a supercut demonstrating the use of symmetry as a device within the Hannibal television show. It was a lot of fun to make and learn some Octane!
The full video featuring the titles can be seen below! Check it!
Tiger lilies in octane!
Created in Cinema 4D and rendered using OCTANE.
Music: Flower Dance by DJ Okawari
Octane Render Test
Created in C4D and rendered as an initial Octane rendering test.
Jupiter
Cube 1.2
Today's piece is rendered raw from C4D and based on a piece of concept art by Ruslan Safarov.
STRING THEORY
Decided to try and do a quick recreation of one of my favorite pieces: the cover of H.U.V.A. Network's album "Distances." Had a lot of fun messing around with volume lights, sub polygon displacement and particle trails to make this one!
Collision Course
Decided to try and do something similar to Ben Young's sculptures today. Learned a lot about caustics, Booles and faking subsurface on the Iceburg with the Chamlum shader.
VW Squareback Day 3
Sunshine
Squareback!
Day 2 has shown immense progress on the 1970 VW Squareback! Modeled in Cinema 4D, this beauty should be purring and in the texturing process by the end of the week! There are big plans for this cutie and I'm excited for the weeks to come and the tests that will be run :D

DAILY FX
Snow Fog - daily fx update 1
Quick digital painting of the parents' house in MD, around sunset. Following the big blizzard this year, as temperatures rose quickly, the melting snow gave off a thick fog. This made for an atmospheric view in the woods.
Blooming in a Blizzard
For the last week I've been working on a pet project involving the blooming of tiger lilies. And it just so happened the render finished right around the time the big east coast blizzard hit. The render below is still a work in progress, especially in terms of textures and lighting, but gives a good look at the elements in motion. Created in C4D and rendered using the Physical renderer. Will be composited in Nuke. Enjoy!
