Hero Work
Motion + Video
Animation, commercials, character work, live-action direction, VFX, compositing, editing, motion graphics and sound. Sometimes I make every frame. Sometimes I direct the room. The constant is staying close enough to the work to make the idea survive production.
A hero position reserved for one of the strongest finished pieces—or a future edited reel—once the video library moves to streaming-friendly delivery.
Selected motion + video
The final collection will land around 12–16 pieces. Each project gets credited by what I actually did rather than being forced into a single medium bucket.

View full case study →How I work
Find the idea and determine what motion is actually doing for it.

Shape timing, compositing, graphics, sound and final delivery into one coherent piece.
The range
More motion
The old portfolio carried 42 videos. Those pieces do not disappear; after the streaming pass, worthwhile supporting work can live in a secondary motion archive without competing with the strongest 12–16 selections above.
