MOTION DESIGN REEL

Some of the best shots from my favorite animations.

NOTHING - SHOW US YOUR SONG

Nothing wants one million people to try their new "Phone 3." This Animation created in Blender and After Effects introduces the phone and announces the Nothing Music Video Competition. See the Nothing - Show Us Your Song page in the design section for more info.

LAUNCH

This 3D animated short film was made in Blender, After Effects, and Davinci Resolve. I created it for a self-guided class in which we chose a project and worked on it all semester, periodically checking in with our professor to show our progress. I entered it into the 2025 Capital Region Advertising Federation ADDY’S and won a gold award as well as the student best in show award at the local level, along with a silver award at the regional level.

ADDYs 2026 INTRO VIDEO

After winning "Best in Show" at the ADDYs in 2025 for my animation, Launch, the CRAF board reached out to me and asked if I would create the intro video for the 2026 ADDY awards ceremony. I of course said yes. The theme for the year was "Battle of the B(r)ands." They allowed me full creative freedom to create a video fitting the graphical punk style they had come up with. They also asked me to incorporate footage of intro videos from past years.

BENGALS SPORTS GRAPHIC

This short sports graphic animation was created in Blender and After Effects. It features a variety of shots and transitions that could conceivably be broken up into different parts and featured on a live sports broadcast.

THE GAME (1997) TITLE SEQUENCE

This animation was made in 3D inside of Blender. I made it for an assignment to remake or create an animated title sequence for a movie or TV show. We were told to use a song or audio from the original movie. I used the song White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane which is featured in the movie. 

WHAT ABOUT PLUTO?

This animation was made in After Effects. It was for a class project in which we had to research a topic, write a script that teaches it in a simple way, record voice over of that script, and then animate an infographic or visual aid to that recording.
