About me
I've worked for Fortune 100 companies and clients in the computer industry for over two decades, starting as a programmer and ultimately a BPR specialist. I started the software development division at ITG and presided over several successful dot-com developments and managed a staff of consultants at dozens of clients across the US and Canada. Then I bought several QSRs and ran them for several years. Always keeping my fingers in computers, I produced a 60-second commercial, start to finish, and fell in love with the process. I sold my stores and returned to my computer roots in my spare time (real estate being the full-time part), becoming a CG artist and expert in Blender and compositing.
interestsCG, Photography, Music, Art. Within CG, I focus on texturing, lighting, compositing and post-production.
favorite musicMy own. I compose a variety of genres.
favorite tv showsI do not watch TV. Kinda ironic, isn't it, because I produce TV commercials? I think it's because when I am on a gig and work with video all day, I'm kinda burned out on it. I spend my time creating, not watching. I do appreciate good films though, especially good compositing work, and richly-textured video games.
favorite moviesAny with SFX. I love to take them apart and figure out how they are done, and truly appreciate the art.
favorite gamesXBox 360
favorite booksMy library is overflowing.
