Experience

Online 3D tutor with 10 years of visual effects film industry experience specializing in Maya, 3ds Max, and V-Ray I'm a 3D artist with expertise in animation, modeling, rigging, texturing, lighting, and rendering. My tools of choice are Maya, 3ds Max, V-Ray, After Effects, Premiere, and Photoshop. As a veteran visual effects artist with 10 years of film industry experience, I am excited to share what I've learned with you. Filmmaking is my passion, and I enjoy discussing it from a liberal arts perspective that I believe makes it accessible to a wide audience. Maya was the primary application that I used while working on Avatar at Weta Digital, and Epic and Rio 2 at Blue Sky Studios. My professional experience includes CG set dressing, layout, and matchmoving, but I am proficient in most stages of the visual effects/animation pipeline. I have made several animated short films from start to finish using Maya, Photoshop, After Effects, and Premiere, so I am capable of tutoring students in any of those programs (at any age or grade level). I also worked as a 3D generalist in the visualization industry for two years, where I used 3ds Max, V-Ray, After Effects, Premiere, and Photoshop to provide all stages of the 3D pipeline, from modeling through compositing. I have one year of experience tutoring with Wyzant Tutoring. My personal approach to tutoring is to first assess your skill level with the subject area, and then to focus on the specific topics that will enable you to improve the most, according to your unique goal. Whatever the task, I look forward to helping you achieve success!
