BIG UPDATE

Things with USC and loans have worked out and I am now taking Video Game Production and 3d Modeling, Animating, Etc there. These classes and professors are incredible and I'm learning a tremendous amount of useful information.

Here are my first few projects:

Create a building with primitives

Create a building via mesh edit

Texture!

Create a classic arcade game in Game Maker (I chose Galaga)

Logo Ideas

A friend of mine needed a logo for his small computer repair business, so I helped him out a bit. I hadn't done a logo in awhile either, so it was nice to brush off the dust.

Beatles Wallpaper

Working on a painting for my living room and had to map it out in photoshop first. Can't go wrong with The Beatles.

New ArtRage Paintings

Been messin around with ArtRage some more and I gotta say.. It's pretty darn awesome.

ArtRage Painting

I wanted to take time to create a quality painting with ArtRage, so I took a panorama I had and oil painted it up. Here's the result:

Sony Vaio ArtRage Event

Hello again!

So, yesterday I worked at a special Sony Vaio event hosted at Sony Pictures (which was awesome). My job was to demo and promote a Photoshop-like program called ArtRage. Having only been introduced to it yesterday morning, I have to say I'm impressed. It simulates traditional mediums extremely well, it's easy to learn and start using, still has great digital features, and best of all.. It's only about $50 depending on what version you get.

It has the Gibson Stamp of Approval! (which doesn't really mean anything.. ho hum)

Here are a few example of work I did in the little spare time I had at the event.

Quick Update

So, I haven't posted anything or updated my website much in a little while... But here are a few personal and non-personal things I've been working with.

The full storyboard I've been working on with director Rafal Zielinski:

New Stuff on the Way!

Well, I guess I kinda took a hiatus from posting on here and deviantart.. but I'll return soon enough. I do have a few things waiting to be posted, but for now, here's a Man of Steel phone wallpaper I made. Share and enjoy, just remember it's my creation :)

New Business Cards!

In a perfect world:

"nice to meet you matt! oh, hey this is a sharp looking business card! come work for us doing this creative thing and we'll pay you lots of money! you can start tomorrow!"

it can happen right?

...right?

Still Alive! And Sorta Working on Things

I have been pretty bad about posting recently, but I've still been working on a few things. Some personal, some freelance. Most recently is this 3D project:

There wasn't much of a concept before I started working, so I went into it a bit blind, but it turned out ok. I think the design could be a bit better polished and fluid, but it's not bad.

More to come.

Aquent Freelance!

Last week I had a meeting with a freelance agency called Aquent, and what a great meeting it was! Aquent basically has clients needing some sort of creative project done and then Aquent finds the right creative person to do it. Well, I am now one of those creative people.

I'll be able to create fancy presentations for clients to pay bills as a consistent form of work and in the meantime, Aquent will look for storyboard and character design jobs for me. Perfect!!

I'm currently making sample slides for them to show clients.

Halo 4 Under Armor Concept Done

Finished the under armor! Cleaned the pic up a bit too, for presentation purposes. Next up, the primary armor.

Back Under Armor

Back under armor done! Mostly...

On deck: side armor

In the hole: front main armor

Front Under Armor

Front side of armor done! Mostly.. 

This was only supposed to be a suit for under the armor but kinda turned into lightweight armor itself. We'll see how this plays out...

At It Again

This is the beginning of an armor concept I'm whipping up. Halo 4 has to be one of the most incredible looking games, stunning design and composition throughout. So, it's inspired me to create a custom armor for the Chief.
