LightBox Expo Panel

This year we were invited to speak at LightBox Expo in Pasadena and talk about the visual approach for Jurassic World Chaos Theory. The focus was about the visual style to story telling, why we made certain decision from a design stand point as well as lighting and comp elements we added to enhance our story. It was incredibly rewarding to engage with the artists, students, and fans of the series. Always an honor to be included with this group of talented artists.

So this happened...

Whoa! What an honor to be included in Animation Magazine's 2024 Rising Stars of Animation! We all experience imposter syndrome, even when accolades like this come our way. A heartfelt thank you to Animation Magazine for considering me, and to DreamWorks Animation Television for providing me with the platform and trust. Congratulations to my fellow 2024 Rising Stars!

Le Musicien Master Class

Reza guided us through the pitfalls and best practices for creating the artwork and assembling the 2D puppets for the stop motion film.
