Responsibilities: Materials, Rendering, Compositing

Programs: Maya, 3dsMax, Flash, After Effects

This is a project I worked on at D4 Creative Group in Philadelphia. It had already been animated and rendered for other clients. The assignment was to change out the logo on the dancing Mp3s. I first modified the animated logo in Flash. Then I created costume scripts for each shot that selected the proper geometry in order to change out the texture. Once I had my render options and layers setup, I rendered out the screens and composited in After Effects.

Picking up after someone else's project was like a huge puzzle and was half the challenge. However, what I love about working on this commercial is that I learned different strategies that speeds up workflow. As an artist, it is a great experience in being proficient and organized.
