Personal Map

Finished!  I really like this one, probably cus it says so much about me.  I think I'll print one to take home.

some screens from my animatic

Pretty much what the title says.  WOP for our end of semester Illustration project.  The world corresponds to the one my character design lives in.

Phizzi!

Designing another website (yea I'm keeping myself busy) that's dedicated to rating games, except that the reviewing is focused on casual games, and targeted at the community.  The idea is a user based rating system, and apart from that I'm not revealing too much in case someone steals my idea before it's executed. :)  Games can be either Phizzi or Phlat, ie they are worth your money or not.

Design Project

A personal map of myself.  The concept represents my scattered skills, scattered thoughts, and scattered goals.  It's in progress at the moment.  The bottom string is a timeline of my life in the last two years, the string of squares coming from the top are what has affected me.  It crashes into the timeline, and "affects" the direction of it, joining into one line on the right hand side.  The colours are the ones I attribute to the particular element (Calgary is cold = blue).  The colours after the joining are a social experiment I attempted on myself.  Every day for the last month I've picked a colour depending on how I felt for that day.  I strung them together to form that last segment of the timeline.  Having trouble with asymmetry at the moment, I think the left side is too heavy.

Character Designs

These are some character designs for my illustration class, our last project is either a graphic novel or animatic!  I used a storyboard & script that I was in the process of writing awhile ago for this character and the next project.

Magazine design

Design is getting harder, but I think I'm getting the hang of it.  This sheet is for a HOW TO article on drinking wine.

Storyboards

So much is going on! Finally we've started doing projects that are relatively interesting in class now, here are a set of storyboards for illustration class - Try and guess what movie they're from.

concept art

want to get back to doing this sort of work, very very busy these days though, client work and game design taking up a lot of my time, along with a full time day job starting next week.  Don't know when I'll get this done so I'll put it up as a draft first

catching up

so much going on, don't know where to start.  I'll start with the business cards I recently finished.

post modern design

A bit late on this one, I had to move out and fly back home this week so it's been chaos.  This is an info poster designed in the post modernist style.

woohoo!

almost done the semester! very exciting summer ahead, absolutely can't wait to see what's in store!  Here's the final Zorro painting:

Style

I've been painting... and i love it.  I think.. i might have my style!  Maybe, but I definitely see myself exploring this type of style more.

Chocolate!

Chocolate package designed to compete with Lindt.  The package was created and engineered completely by me.  the L emblem on the box slides out and the violet part slides out to show the chocolate.  The dye flat is below the ad.

digital portrait

Digitally painted portrait

Canada

Have had a rough patch lately, my favourite prof passed away, some other stuff has come up.  Will get back on track and start posting weekly once again!  To start it off here's an illustration done of Canada and it's nature.

Montage

This is a drawn montage of the film Pan's Labyrinth for illustration class.
