Revisiting this part of the project, now that I understand Blender texture nodes and other data structures better. This is a simple animation meant to represent the lander's retro rocket firing and stirring up dust on the Lunar surface. This is me...
This is a test of a flickering-monitor effect on the Mission Control Room set. Created for the "Lunatics!" animated pilot ( http://lunatics.tv ). It's really just a 2-second test, repeated 20 times, so you have some time to look at it. I'm not ...
Draft of ambient audio loop for the photosynthetic algal reactor in the colony (it's a tank full of algae with air bubbled through it to pick up oxygen from photosynthesis). Made from multiple original recordings mixed, equalized, and looped in A...
Three-camera animation test. Footage was rendered in Blender from three camera views of the same animated motion. The footage was spaced-out to allow for process editing effects (dissolves). The final edit was completed in Kdenlive, by overlapping...
This is a somewhat tricky set of problems, so I made a simple example file to test out some ideas. In the first test, I simply attached ("parented") the camera to the upper stage so that it follows it. I thought this would be really boring, but...

Animatic of a sequence for Lunatics, presented as an example in [Free Software Magazine](http://freesoftwaremagazine.com/)([ARCHIVE](https://web.archive.org/web/20100602144625/http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/)) - [Creating an Animatic Using Au...
I am still roughing in anatomy and getting proportions down. This is a quick animation to help see some of the problems.
A portrait of an ex, terminal_fool, aka random_self, "playing" Carmegeddon II, Carpocalypse Now.
Experimenting with volumetrics in Eevee.
This is my first ever recognizable likeness. You don't know the model so you'll just have to take my word on this. It has taken one week so far but there’s still a lot more I can do with it. I haven’t even turned off symmetry and put any of the...
I took an (unintended) break from Blender to work on some IT debt I need to pay off before summer. I found it kind of hard to get back into the art grind after I lost the habit. I decided to do a sketch without any models or plans or all that bo...
