Even though this piece is not perfect and was my first try at After Effects, it still deserves recognition. This piece required a lot of me and I made it through, even with all of the set-backs.

Description: Taking my 3D character, Bun Bun McXtreme, and his friend the Masked Luchadore, I created a short animation. It was my first time animating (including rigging) and while it may have taken forever, I loved doing it.

Title:Starbucks Summer Promo
Date: 2007
Description: My first go with After Effects. My assignment was to have a custom countdown, title screen, animated logo, the "commercial" and end credits. My so-called commercial was a spot for Starbucks to advertise their orange flavored drinks for the summer and spring seasons.

Title: The Ambros Wedding (Reception clip)
Date: 2007
Description: A gal pal of mine was getting hitched and at the almost-last-minute, she decided she needed a videographer. I was more than happy to help. The project was huge, I had an entire team to manage, and editing over 6 hours of tape took for what seemed like forever. It was a great experience but I am not ready to do something so large any time soon.
Programs: Final Cut Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, RAW footage
