A short film following the street artist Mosher painting a mural. It was great to team up with someone whose art I’d long admired. I met Mosher while working with Galerie F in Chicago documenting the process of local artists and creating promos for their shows. It came with a bonus: the Chicago edition of the Huffington Post covered it, which really made me day.
Client: Goons
Software: After Effects, Garageband, Premiere
Short video flyers for the street artist Goons and his show at Galerie F. It was fantastic to collaborate with an artist of such eclectic tastes. The challenge was working remotely since Goons was in his studio across the country. But the internet can be a wonderful thing, so we relied on Dropbox to share photo and video assets. We spoke over the phone and email so I could make requests for the types of shots I needed. Goons has a distinct personality and visual style so to be successful with his audience we had to bring as much of that into the videos as possible. The soundtrack is actually Goons rapping.
Client: AyOh
Software: After Effects, Premiere
The band AyOh approached me to make a music video for them using one of the songs on their upcoming album. The challenge was to deliver a high quality visual experience while working with a modest budget and short amount of time. We had 2 days of photography and a 3 man crew. Together we put out a video that I think captures the bittersweet moment behind the lyrics.

Client: LUCX & Nice One
Software: After Effects, Garageband, Illustrator, Premiere
A social video promo and short documentary on the art process of street artists LUCX & Nice One for their show at Galerie F. I brought the project from concept to final delivery. I pitched the idea, shot them in their studio, edited, and did the motion design.

A short film telling the story of life in a 3D animated world. The concept was to show the biology of 3D animation by using playblasts to record the animation tools and objects which aren’t renderable. I wanted to capture that world that exists for the animator and give it life in the imagination of the audience.
Client: Blue Redder
Software: After Effects, Cinema 4D, Garageband, Photoshop, Premiere
The electro pop musician Blue Redder approached me to make a music video. It was a great opportunity to further experiment with my love for loop animation. I recorded Blue performing his song Killer. I used that one piece of footage to create all the animated assets in the film. For social media I designed this ad for the event.
Client: Angry Bear
Software: After Effects, Cinema 4D, Garageband, Photoshop, Premiere
The band Angry Bear wanted a short animation to play between sets during their concert. Time was very tight with this project. I turned to my frequent collaborators Adam Aguirre and Dan Spilatro to help with a quick production schedule. Using raw footage from a previous short film, Teevee, we made Teevee Redux a series of loops and scenes.
