This Perfect Place

This is a trailer for a movie I helped work on over the past year and a half during a job and internship at Van Ness Creative. It's good to finally see it finished and finally playing at the Salem cinema.

Business Card

This is what I'm planning for a business card. I'm not sure if I'm going to call this done quite yet.

Artrageous!26 Auction Signage

This was for the annual Montserrat auction, "Artrageous!". I was tasked with making animated signage, meant to loop on screens at the auction to point out each of the different departments. Obviously not all of the departments are represented here. Another student has been working on those.

After doing my senior thesis project, it's good to return to doing more quick projects.
I feel at home again.

My final animation at Montserrat! How sad...

Web Site Progress

Here are some screenshots of the web site I'm building, for when this blog is not enough for all of your Zach related needs.

Future Projects

With my senior show over with, I'm looking forward to going back and fixing The Tortoise and the Hare project less and less. We'll see what happens.

I am currently working on making a business card and a website.
Also, I am making animated signage for the school auction at the end of the year. It's a little more than half done, and I will post everything I did for that at once on this blog and YouTube.

I have a few ideas for future projects rolling around in my brain.
Including making up sci-fi worlds, and The Never Ending Spaghetti.
I'm going to be looking at other video websites where I can post my work. The more places I post my work, the more people that can see it. I have had barely any views on Vimeo since I started that account. My YouTube is fairing slightly better, although my most viewed video isn't even an animation.

Proximity Opening Reception

So this past week was the opening reception for the graphic design senior show that I was a part of Proximity. The reception went well. It was about what I expected.

Here are pictures of some of the work from the graphic design students.

Of course you can tell my display apart from the others because of the cartoon characters.

My display consisted of two screens playing recent animations, with focus on my Tortoise and the Hare adaptation that I have working on all year. Screenshots and character printouts are hung on the wall.

I'm glad everyone likes that dog, that stupid thing makes me happy. Without the dog, I would not have wanted to finish that project.

With this huge hurdle behind me. I have a lot of more desire to work on other upcoming projects and I already have animations planned for after I graduate.
