visual effects and video post-production
I am a graduate of the Digital Animation and Visual Effects School—known better as the DAVE School—in Orlando, Florida, where I studied and applied the skills and techniques I learned over the course of the year to begin a new career. The block four project we submitted and worked on for graduation was Code Red: Intergalactic Trauma Unit, on which I primarily composited and camera tracked most of the bridge scenes, as well as creating some pre-visualizations of the space scenes. Following graduation, I assisted in making this project better for a few months until I got my first professional start in visual effects on the movie, Frank vs. God. The second movie I worked on was The Legend of Hercules, by Millenium Studios/Worldwide FX, and returned there to work on The Expendables 3. Upon leaving Worldwide FX, I returned to Orlando to do some work on King's Gambit, and Sharknado 3. Afterward, I became a teachers assistant at the DAVE School, and picked up some additional freelance work on the side. As of January 2016, I am now living in Martinsburg, West Virginia, for my new job with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service as an Audio/Visual Systems Customer Service Representative and Photo/Graphics Specialist.
Prior to the DAVE School, I attended and graduated from Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, Illinois, where I majored in Radio and Television, specifically video production, with a minor in Information Technology, with a specification in web site design and maintenance. My credits from my college experience include being an on screen actor in an episode of alt.news 26:46, and on the technical crew for WSIU InFocus, WSIU Scholastic Hi-Q, basketball remote productions, and River Region Evening Edition for WSIU-TV. After graduating, I was an Audiovisual Technician, Operations Technician, and an Audiovisual Manager; while performing these roles, I aided in providing audiovisual services to clients within several hotel and conference center locations
