BLT Illustration - The Internship!!
Back in my graduating year at SJSU - I had the amazing opportunity to learn from some of the best Illustrators currently working in the Movie Poster Advertising business at BLT Illustration!
It was such an amazing experience - whether it was my boss or any of my co-workers, each person was a mentor and Jedi Master of drawing to me. I learned a ton. :]
At the end of it all - I made a movie poster illustration of my own implementing some of the skills and tricks I learned on the job - summing up my experience there with a Star Wars homage.

From the Way Back ... BFA Gallery Artwork and Demo Reel
Graduating from the BFA Animation Illustration program each year's class has a show where each student gets to present a select highlight of some of the work they've been up to over their last year in school. Below are a few pieces I submitted to the show that made it up onto the gallery walls.
Looking back on this work is a fun - and an awesome reminder how far (specifically) my Animation skills have grown over my time now at iAnimate

Adventures in Stop Motion Animation
Adventures in Stop Motion Animation!!
A few years back I had the chance to try out stop motion animation in a class I took at SJSU.
This shot - which originally started as an assignment - quickly became a fun personal project, and was a chance to help bring to life a character design made by one of my closest and best friends - Steven Celiceo.

CSU Summer Arts!!
I had the opportunity to take the Animation class and learn from some of the coolest, down to earth, knowledgeable, and inspiring instructors like the great Aubry Mintz, Ryan Woodward, and Orlando Pabotoy.
Where, I think I learned/rediscovered my second love: TV pitch development. :]
Learning all about Storytelling, and sculpting a story from the ground up is an amazing experience and immensely rewarding sharing it with others.
Here's a cartoon sketch one of our guest instructors and awesome Nickelodeon Artists - Rikke Asbjorn.
