"Lucky's Clinic" Promo Trailer

Click image to play (Password Required)

After creating a Sales Poster for Ashley Park and Tim McGrath, they asked me to create this promo trailer for their independently-produced TV Pilot "Lucky's Clinic". They needed a quick, funny sales tool for marketing their project, and they were delighted with the result. In addition to producing the spot, I created the graphics, edited the piece itself, wrote the copy and voiced the narration.

NOTE: Please contact me if you would like to privately view the trailer since the client has requested that it not be released to the public at this time.

Anti News "Saturn's Rings" Parody (Full Episode)

I created this visual effect shot for a friend's parody newscast, the Anti News dealing with the until-recently top secret information that Saturn's rings are made of Earth's garbage (this portion starts at approximately 01:41).  Originally, I was just going to use Cassini spacecraft imagery for Saturn, but the snap-zoom into the rings wasn't good enough, so I created a 3D Saturn to make the zoom transition better (This is an update from the previous post showing the graphic in context to the episode).

Mr. Peabody & Sherman Int'l. Trailers

The international trailers that I designed and animated the interstitial titles for that teased the concept of Dr. Who and time travel, relating it to Mr. Peabody's WABAC machine.  The decision to tease Dr. Who for the international theatrical campaign was because Dr. Who is better known overseas.

Epic :30 TV Spot

The "Ice Age 4" opening pedigree graphic in this spot was a lot harder to create than it looks! I needed to re-arrange the character elements, change the aspect ratio of the frame, add water (seamlessly) and track the iceberg element to add the Ice Age title. Whoof! I also creatively directed the graphics team at Toy Box on this spot.
