A horror short done in my final year at UW Milwaukee in the scant spare time when I was not working on my Senior Project. Focus was on set building with the help of a team. Had many opportunities to help other students in the class with their own projects. I'm not the best actor, but it was fun figuring out how to film the demon and priest as if they were in the same room (I played both parts). Went on to write a book based on this idea.

My first wholly original 3D animation, during the creation of which I learned how to sculpt, animate, texture, light, and render scenes and characters. Featured in a student animation festival, never completed the sound because I moved on to The Shepherd's Dream, my senior project.

Short done for a class in my sophomore year inspired by the movie Ip Man. Filmed in front of my dorm room window, took the existing trees and copied and pasted them around to build up a lush canopy. Didn't have a green screen, so I did the masking by hand in After Effects to create the illusion of a silhouette.

The final project for my first year at UW Milwaukee. Filmed at my parents' farm. Learned to use higher end film cameras than I'd had access to previously, as well as Premiere Pro. Light visual effects work in various shots. All sound added in post.

A project completed in my junior year at UW Milwaukee. Shot at my parents' farm with focus on cinematography and set design. Somewhat choppy editing, since I was mostly trying to showcase cool shots. Gained more experience in building props and working with limited resources. Intended to add sound, but became too busy working on my Senior Project.
