Red Engine 2012

Hey everyone!

So I made it through the 12 week semester at Red Engine here in LA. I took the Adv. Entertainment Design class with Jung Park and Steve Jung. It was a great experience with lots of talented people and I'd do it all over again in a flash.

Now for the work!

I went back again to the Egypt Project and set it to the story "Aida." "Aida" is an Italian Opera written by Guiseppe Verdi during the 1800's. It's romantic tragedy which takes place during the height of Ancient Egypt. What I did was give it a sci-fi spin based on the previous work I did.

Enjoy!

Hey everyone!

Here's another painting I'd like to share with you all. It's another sci-fi lady piece. Quite fun to paint and   it's been a good practice/learning experience for me as well.

Big Update

Hey guys!

I started taking classes last week at Red Engine here in LA, so I wanted to share what I did for the first assignment. Our assignment was to do some environment sketches/paintings to help establish where our story is taking place. Much to my surprise I put out these 8 paintings during this week. More than double the output of the Adv. Perspective class I took back at AAU. 

Also!

 New Egypt is being repurposed into my own visualization of the opera "Aida" by Giuseppe Verdi. I'll be taking what I've previously done into this project which will help the New Egypt project get what it lacked the most: A story with characters.

Wish me luck! I'll keep you guys posted on progress.

Thanks for stopping by!

Yooooo

Hey folks!

Exhuming this blog to tell you that I'm still alive!

I wanted to do something fun and outrageous. Worked on this piece for the past few weeks between assignments and had a blast the entire time.

Egypt Re-visit

Hey guys so I revisited one my Egypt pieces from last year. Initially it was pretty weak and I cut it from the final presentation, but after some tweaking and reworking I like it a lot better. I wanted to show the Anubis in action since I didn't have any shot of it doing anything.

More Knights!!

Hey guys.

Playing around with more tech knights. This guy is part of the Order of Saint Lazarus (which still exists to this day). Back during the Crusades the Order made it a point to provide relief for those who suffered from leprosy. Many of their knights were lepers! This guy has a prosthetic leg provided by the Order, but as payment he has to serve time to pay off the cost.

I'll get some more up for you all to see soon.
