As I’ve previously mentioned, I’ve been working on the indie feature Ingénue for the last 6 months or so, here and there, as the visual effects editor and title sequence designer (and DVD menu author and end credits designer, for the record.) It was edited by my friend Katie and directed by Kate Chaplin. Ingénue… Continue reading Ingenue Premiere and other film updates

Art of an Indie Title Sequence
Well, I wasn’t expecting to post about this for a few months, but since it was unveiled, I can now.

When I do get a project I can potentially put more creativity in to, I like to take the time to try some things… Continue reading Day/Dusk for Night Fun!

Admittedly, I am a fairly huge nerd. Nothing to be ashamed about, really. But I am so nerdy that I decided one day to throw together another kinetic typography project. I like kinetic type, though it’s rather over-done nowadays and there’s an awful lot of crap out there. I don’t care.
