Animation Production: Overwatch 2
For two and a half years, I have served as the sole production hand for outsource animation work on Overwatch 2 acting as the main point of contact for Client communications. Internally, I manage a team of ten animators, two technical artists, two animation leads and an animation supervisor; coordinating daily meetings, organizing client submissions, and budget tracking for efficient deadline delivery. We produce the complete production pipeline of animation, from concept all the way to implemention. Here is a snippet of one seasons worth of animation shots we finalized for client delivery.

Team Building Videos
When animators leave my team, I make a point to create a unique sendoff video for them to emphasize the joy and art they brought to our lives. These are a fun way to commemorate the animator and also exercise my video editing skills. These are usually done within a week during downtime and I keep them purposefully choppy to add character and hide animation reference formatting differences.

Newscast Production
In an educational setting, my production class planned and executed a full newscast. We pitched stories, shot and edited packages, shot anchor footage, and edited all together with graphics and sound. I served as the technical director running a G.V. Switcher and calling switching cues to my floor manager. In the video below, I edited the final cut. As a team, we successfully put together a newscast that I am very proud of.
Edited in Premiere Pro.
Film Project: Pixy
This is a complete original short film written, directed, and edited by myself. I was lucky to get the help from my friends in the form of acting to see my vision come to fruition.
This was shot on a Canon D90 and edited in Adobe Premiere Pro.
Montage Project: Growth Paralleled
This is a montage I edited of appropriated footage. The growth of a tree is paralleled with the growth of industry. This eventually comes to climax in calamity.

Audio Narrative: Ben Franklin and Bash
This is an audio narrative project written, acted, and edited completely by me. It’s a parody episode of the comedy show “Franklin and Bash”. I have never seen the show and don’t claim to know what it’s about but had a great time creating a story about them meeting a long lost relative…Ben Franklin.
