Project for Full Sail University. First off, let me start by saying that I am not actually that vain. The entire interview and redundant credits were a class requirement; otherwise I’d never stick this mug in front of the camera. However, I don’t hate it, and I do have some aspects of Motion Graphics in it, so I’m putting it up. Who knows, you might find it useful if you’re ever in desperate need of animating a 2D lime.

P.S. Can you spot the cameo by Ashley Nieves?

Above is my final project for History of Visual Communications at Full Sail. I’ll include my hokey artist statement:”
“Dreams have always provided me with an abundance of ideas; nothing could be purer from a creative standpoint. We dream every night, multiple dreams in fact, but of all the dreams we have in our lives we remember only a handful, a speckle of sand on an astral dune. This is why I’m always grateful to remember one; it is a gift of memory. As dreams often are, this piece is also left ambiguous, the meaning left for the viewer to discern.”
In essence, I was reading the third volume of Sandman last summer and took a catnap. The image came to me in a dream so it’s been rattling around for a while, but the style was inspired very recently by Marina Terauds, an artist I saw at the Winter Park Art Festival who does amazing etchings. So there you go.
Also included is another version of the piece:
