Technical Skills

3D Animation

This is where my passion lies and thusly, where I am most capable. I am always learning and improving!

Programming

I'm what you could consider a "survivalist" programmer. I've had experience with a variety of languages (C++, C#, PHP, HTML/CSS, MEL, AS2, etc...) and know good programming practices. If something needs to be coded, it's a safe bet that I'll figure out a way to make it happen.

Video / Film Production

I'm not going to win "director of the year", but I can certainly put a video together from concept storyboard through to final editting and authoring.
