While at Utopic I designed and animated some background graphics for a stage on the new Princess ship, Sun Princess. The Naming Ceremony is a big deal for new cruise ships, and this was no exception!
Art direction from Tinmen, and editing with Suzie Moore.

Gensler curated some incredible artists to create monthly observance posters for the massive 150ft LED at the new AT&T Discovery District. Working closely with each artist, I converted their works to be looping, subtly moving animations. Here you can see a few of the pieces with the original poster and the animated piece side by side.

While at Gensler, our team designed and animated a number of seasonal/themed animations to play on the large LED installed in the renovated building lobby of 1100 Louisiana in Houston. These were small elements of a much larger project we designed content for.

While at Gensler I designed the motion and looks for the real-time simulations on a media wall in the new ISU lobby. Featuring flags from all over the world ‘flocking together’, I used xparticles to mimic the behavior of the starling murmurations. Here is a sample of the experiments.

This was a beast! While at Gensler we were asked to repurpose old designs and posters from heritage airlines (there were lots of them!). Once designed, we added subtle animations and sequenced them with seamless transitions for a large display at the American Airlines headquarters.

While at Gensler I animated graphics for the Coca-Cola Experience Tour at a new bottling factory in Houston. Very simple graphics with a fun theme - bubbles! Here’s a sample of the package, which included a variety of displays throughout the tour.

Ballet Chicago asked me to help with a projected animated backdrop for their interpretation of ’Creatures of Prometheus.’ Working closely with their talented choreographer Ted Seymore, we developed looks that complemented the story but were careful to not to be too distracting. Faced with budget constraints and limited rehearsals, we had to cut some of the techniques we originally planned, but were able to use a combination of time lapsed footage and animation to achieve the desired looks. It was an equally challenging and rewarding experience, I hope to do more pieces like this in the future!

Design and animation for the intro track on GRiZ's 2016-2017 tour. Design help from my talented friends Lydia Demange and David Najarian.

Also a little highlight reel from some additional content we created for the tour.

When my fiancé David went on tour with DJ Shadow as his A/V director, I was rewarded a rare and unique opportunity to create custom video content for his new song ‘Corridors’ to debut at Coachella. With only two weeks and a 7:19 runtime, as well as a challenging pixel map with a frontal transparent scrim (holograms!!), my dream to work on a DJ Shadow show was no easy feat. The dark and cinematic track guided the journey through tunnels and particle fields, with energy ranging from peaceful and calm to chaotic and confusing. I’ve been a huge DJ Shadow fan since I was 14, so this truly was an amazing experience. Highlight reel footage from the European tour shot by David Najarian.

I was asked to help create custom content for the massive production at the 2015 Pretty Lights Red Rocks shows. With the vision to immerse Derek in a visual story of his music, Pretty Lights and team brought out the most amount of LED panels ever seen in Red Rocks history, covering the floor, the wall behind him, and 11 moving towers of various heights. Working with the talents at RadioEditAV and Imaginex was such a blast...insane hours and constant rendering paid off!
