So much to do and so little time! - July 8th 2009

So much has changed in my life since I last posted here, so I thought it was long over due for an update. To those whom are intersted, I have released my first iPhone game (http://tr.im/lsdY) and I am currently working on three other game titles for the iPhone / iPod Touch, and also on top of that a Nintendo Wii title to boot!!! So talk about no time for much of anything else... Oh but wait there is more! I am heading to the Philippines from July 30th until Aug 30th 2009 to meet my Judith, I am super excited about the whole trip. I will bring back some photos and video as I will be vlogging my entire trip. BUT WAIT THERE IS MORE!!!! I am also moving back to the UK, about a month after I return from my Philippines trip. I have to do this so I can setup my business there, and get my internet up and running so I can get these games out the door and continue on with my game development. So yea to say the least, I am super busy, god knows I need this month break from all of this chaos!

On the animation front, I am working with clients doing some contractual work. Currently I am working with EduWeb on an educational game. Aside from that I will be putting out some animation for our Nintendo Wii title, along with hiring someone to aid me with this. Keep an eye on http://www.gearworxprod.com to learn of openings and game updates.

Anyway thats all for now.... more stuff when I come back or I am settled in the UK.

Happy animating.

Back From Animation Mentor Graduation - January 21st 2009

WOW!!! Talk about amazing in every sense of the word. I tell ya, if I did not attend my grad, I would of been kicking myself for it later. . . . HARD. I was honored to meet some amazing people, make new friends and some solid contacts. I met up with Steve Parente and his lovely fiance Michiko, it was a great time hanging together. On the 16th of January, I attended a job fair and had the chance to talk to some recruiters from some amazing studios, such as Pixar, ILM, Blizzard, Sony Imageworks, Sony Entertainment, Bungie, Light Stream and Speakeasy FX. Then on January 17th I attended my graduation which was one of the best days of my life, the sense of completing such a solid and complex course... it felt GREAT! The whole grad felt like a mini version of the oscars, complete with student awards and guest speakers, followed by the ceremonial walk. Anyway please check out the videos below and my grad photo album, right now I am still enjoying the nice feeling I have about the whole trip.
