Command & Conquer: Rivals

I can finally talk about the project I've been working on for the last 3 years!

Command & Conquer: Rivals brings the legacy of the classic RTS series to mobile.

On this project, I am / have been responsible for nearly all 3D animation and rigging. It has been an amazing learning experience so far; and as we transition into soft-launch, I am excited to see where it takes me.

Dawngate

For the last 9 months I have been working as an Animator for Waystone Games (an Electronic Arts studio) on Dawngate, a PC MOBA.

Unfortunately, the project was canceled, however it was a great experience and I was able to do a lot of good work.

The first video is a collection of animations I had created for Dawngate. This is representative of much of my early work on the project. All of the animations were created by myself, with the exception of those for the characters: Basko, Rezen, Ronan, Sakari and Viridian.

The last three videos showcase 3 characters that I animated for the game. I was responsible for the full animation suite for these characters.

Since the cancellation of Dawngate, Waystone Games has since moved on to some new projects which I can't wait to share in the near future.

Deception Force!!!

I had the chance to work on an awesome project over at John McNeil Studio in Berkeley, CA

Deception Force is a new mobile game for iOS and Android where you play as a network security agent who has to fight off computer viruses in a way a bit more up-close and personal than you might think.

Think Quake-meets-TRON and you'll get the idea.

I got to work on the cinematic trailer for the game, which can be found on the Deception Force Website:
