Adaptability: Various Styles



Longevity in this field, of course, relies on talent and work ethic.  And I've also learned that adaptability is essential to a steady career.  
Besides analyzing and practicing different techniques,  researching, studying and learning the initial
philosophy of the art direction contributes to adapting.

theme park design

 





This attraction won a TEA award.

Theme park design was very good to me.  I loved the fact that, with so many clients, you never were caught getting bored.

TRON: UPRISING PROPS AND FX

         The Tron: Uprising project for Disney XD was one of the best shows I've worked on.  To be honest, though the concept process was intense and often difficult, I found it extremely freeing and self
expressive.  The Tron world was so undefined that it really challenged my imagination.  And coupled with the direction of producer/director, Charlie Bean, I think we really pushed the envelope in animated action adventure.
     As far as props and fx, I've always been proud of my refusal to do what's been done before and the "Grid" lent to this.  So it was a perfect fit. 
      Little known fact- I was the first artist hired on this project to help sell the idea to executives.
