Thanks to the guys at Already Been Chewed for an awesome event in Portland tonight. It was great to hear Barton Damer give some awesome insight and breakdowns of some of his work. Also a pleasure to meet John Davidson, the business side of Already Been Chewed. Here’s some practical application to motion graphics from...
Just finished a great tutorial from Envy Studios. Here’s my final render above. This was a great tutorial that touches on building an interior scene from the ground up. You learn to model, texture, light and render all using VrayForC4d. Vray always seemed so daunting but Envy Studios does a great walk through and also...
Chris Tegethoff and I worked on planning the event. I was the host for the open forum. Chris and I developed the questions to stir up the conversation. We had a talented panel of guests. It was a pleasure to sit in front of so many leaders in the industry. The mayor Sam Adams even...

On my trip down to LA, I went to the Auto show and took my Canon 5d Mark II equipped with my 580 EX and a 16-35mm f/2.8. Overall, I’m pretty happy with the results. Jump on over to my Flickr page for more photos from this event.
Today, I was invited by Roger Ross, an awesome local Oregon photographer, to guest speak at his class at Camp Tillamook. It’s a great facility with access to great DSLR equipment (Canon, of course) and each student has their own individual laptop. I was able to share my work and process with the students. They...
Halloween is always a fun time of the year. This year we had some great costumes. Clicking on any of the photos will take you to my flickr stream. I was able to use the Canon 5d Mark II for both stills and video. I am very pleased with the result. No additional lighting was...
I want Nixon now. Check out their awesome line of watches.
