Happy New Year

Heres to a huge year in visual effects.No more excuses.We did some really great work this year. Doing great work is the only job security.

Here is a viewer capture using the new Nuke 8 viewer capture feature. A very nice feature. This little something I made for my wife, its rough and took 34 hours to render. 6k is a world of hurt. Have agreat year everyone.

An Introduction

This journal is about creative thought. It’s pretty simple I have thoughts, I’m working on getting them out of the box. Visual Effects is something I know a fair amount about. I feel that it is a good place to start. Some but not all post wil be visual effects related. Some of the post will be related to personal thoughts others will be tech and geek related. maybe some python, markdown and other tips and tricks.

I am going to call it Labs. Mainly so I don’t feel that it is a final. more of a one off place where I can do a brain dump.

I hope you enjoy.

First a little about myself. I am a father and a husband.

I am a compositor at Level256. We are a team of artists that work together to solve complex problems. We are a Nuke/Maya House.

My Reel

Most of this work was done while at Pacific Title and Art Studio. I was a staff Shake compositor there. My time there was the best. What I learned there is a great foundation on to which I have pilled tricks and tools for Compositing. This Blog will go into that.
