During the production of this video, I played many roles. First, I worked as a storyboard artist, as well as an asset illustrator. Once it was time for animation, I was assigned to a seperate video, but after the Project Lead graduated, I was assigned the role of locating the animations produced, animating the missing footage, adding effects, and bringing all the elements together in a finished video.

Tad
Secondary Character Designer, Set Modeler and Shader, Animator
December 19, 2022:
Our short, Tad, was a group final project for Intro to Computer Animation. Created in Maya, the short tells the story of a lonly tadpole who want to join the frogs, who are living it up in an oasis. The only problem is he has no way to get there! I served as a character animator for the tadpole, and worked as a character designer and modeler for the frog. I also created the beverage props and the water surfaces. In order to keep our render times low, I created a conveyor belt of sorts for the water surface, which has dips and waves, and loops seamlessly.

Take Flight
Story Development Team Member, Supplementary Set Modeler
As part of the four-person core Story Development Team, I met frequently with the group throughout Summer 2023, hammering out the story structure, and creating the narrative that would ultimately become the short film. During production I modeling sets such as the hilly terrain at the fantasy world's entrance, and adapted the living room model to create an architecturally consistent daughter's room. I also created models for the fantasy mashroom-type trees seen on set.

Narrative Medicine
Project Lead, Character Designer, Animator, Illustrator, Storyboard Artist
Narrative Medicine was the first project I worked on with SciToons. Despite still being onboarded and the newest employee,when the Project lead had to take a leave of absence I was unexpectedly charged with spearheading the very first video I was working on with the group. I was able to adapt and successfully managed to bring production to completion.
