motion \ pfcu
A series of spots were shot, designed, and animated for Juice Communications for a credit union — this one featured one of their first customers and juxtaposed older times against present day banking technologies.
type \ logo animation
A series of typographic animations for Freestyle Collective. This one fell through the cracks but was worth resurrecting — will update motion links when I have a second.
pbs \ in the footsteps of marco polo
Design and animation for the Emmy Award-Winning documentary about Denis Belliveau and Francis O’Donnell who retraced Marco Polo’s entire 25,000-mile, land-and-sea route from Venice to China and back — and spent two incredible years of their lives making their dream a reality.

motion \ sansa
Working with friendsofmine, these were a series of spots for the Sansa MP3 player to be featured in Best Buy stores. Starting with genres of music (Rock, Country, Eighties, Hip Hop, etc), numerous pieces were developed around different themes.. Adam Espinoza, Adam Singer, and Jeremy Lindenmier were involved in the creation, edit, design, and 3d [...]
exp. \ fluid
An experimental piece, these are the open titles for an architectural project with an oceanfront view. Using that as a starting point and going off of the curved lines of the design, the animation makes use of circles, water, fluid motion, and simplicity, mixing in elements of architecture (dimension, distance, foundation, and angles). The result [...]
exp. \ box nine
A short film, Box Nine is also a visual narrative for the upcoming Music For Tunnels (a side project currently in development). More to follow. \ audio excerpt
element \ hal ensemble
My second attempt at GUI design and synth programming, this is a clean and simple sound generator built with drifting in mind. Three oscillators, two delays, a phaser w color, adsr tweaks, a band filter w notch, an extended set of reverb controls, and a colder version of HAL. Comes with 25 presets. Click image [...]
motion \ xD loop
Style frames from a series of in-store loops for Scion’s xD. Ultimately the project covered all car models; for the xD, the x became a street intersection where driving environments collided.
exp. \ analog no. 7
A short film featuring the entire (and extremely narrow) view outside a window in the 11th Arrondissement. Realized as a means to explore shooting with muted contrasts, it evolved into a short addition to the Analog Series (which features simple animation and usually focuses on one specific visual), w/ liquid form and type.
motion \ bill moyers journal
Concept, design, and animation of spots promoting Bill Moyers Journal for PBS. Gregory Kennedy produced from NY and cut the initial edit from which ideas for the Open, Close, and Transitional elements evolved. Going off of the tag lines ‘the world is waking up’ and ‘it’s time for Bill Moyers’, the flip clock was used [...]
motion \ comcast (ver. 1)
Original boards created for Comcast High-Speed 2 Go, Comcast’s Internet Everywhere service, for Tronic Studio. Based on web browsing influencing (and becoming a part of) someone’s surroundings, a series of frames were designed to illustrate the environment reacting to a user’s search/research of particular products (and how the wireless service follows you wherever you go).

motion \ factory labs test
This involved the design, animation, and edit (Adam Espinoza) of Factory Design Lab’s updated site/reel. In this example, Dennis Flippin shot footage of FDL’s staff holding posters, magazines and brochures they’d designed, which we then used to showcase other areas of their work (such as interactive design), treated as popup graphics.

motion \ monograms
Design, animation, and edit for Monograms, a travel agency specializing in full-service accommodations abroad. Created for Juice Communications in Denver, Hanna Thoren illustrated the many individual elements.

Noizu is a Simple Oscillator Synthesizer designed to be used with a repetitive or dissonant set of notes, featuring 3 waveforms (Saw, Tri, Sine) and a Noise Generator. Adjustments to the ADSR controls along with 2 Cutoffs and a Note Delay produce sounds that range from muffled and subtle to noises gritty and sharp — [...]
exp. \ disparaître
An experimental short film/animation, Disparaître (to disappear) is subconscious thought told through disconnected visuals, all dealing with escape. Started as a musical composition, it evolved into a motion piece; based on the 4th movement of A Forest Overture, written and recorded in Sweden last February. [excerpt below]

analog v4. goo sphere
Part of the experimental Analog Series, this is an introduction to Element Four — Goo. Originally created to help in compositing tests, it was retrofitted to work as Channel IDs.
(apples) in stripes
Some old-fashioned Macintosh love; starting with a basic model of a laptop, this became an exercise in monochromatic design. Animation was added to explore compositing, turning frames into a small piece of motion graphics once elements of type and color were added. Created last Saturday.
