Visual Effects
I'm currently a student studying VFX. The Visual effects sections is where I showcase my completed projects for modelling, physics simulations, lighting, texturing, in Houdini and Autodesk Maya.
Dynamic Forest Foliage
I find that motion is important in landscapes. Each leaf, trunk, and stem went through solvers like dynamic operators and vellum hair. This enables vector fields to be used to affect velocity to simulate wind.
Ball Lightning
This is my interpretation of the ball lightning phenomenon. Houdini was used to generate lightning paths. Plasma particle network fx was blurred in compositing as the lightning erodes the ball.
Olive Wheel
The wheel was let loose and into pre-fractured geometry. A smoke solver calculates the distance between the pieces to simulate concrete.
Apocethary
For this project, we needed to make a scene from the enlightenment and create a story behind the scene. This was created using Maya, Substance 3D, and Redshift.
Season Change
The barn was converted into a 3d scene from an original image to look like it was taken during the winter. This was created using Maya, and Redshift.
Asset Texturing
This asset was provided then imported into Substance 3d painter. I tried to make the object look like it's been traveling at a powerful velocity with texturing.
Airport Runway
This project required texturing, environment modelling, pulldownit physics, greenscreen tracking and comping, and physics integration. Syntheyes, Maya, Redshift, and Nuke were used to make this scene.
Match-Move Integration
Character match-move techniques to a plate were used for rigging in Autodesk MotionBuilder and Nuke and Maya was implemented for shadow passes aginst the plate.
Physics
Offline physics using Pulldowint for Maya.
3D Renders
I used Cinema4D for creating these ideas.
Visual
Album Artwork
Cinema 4D was used to render objects and Photoshop for colour grading.
Photography
I took these images in RAW using exposure bracketing with Photoshop.
Audio
Found Sounds
Band Recording
The requirements for "found sounds" were to create a song consisting of audio recordings. There wasn't the use of wavetable/subtractive, or additive synthesis and/or sample pack libraries.

Urban Myth: Audio release to be determined
Film Scoring
This project required students to create a soundtrack that matches the outlook of the clip.
I worked on sponsor graphics, menu, schedule, and pamphlet for the Greek Summer Fest website in 2019.
