“Fire Safety is a short I had put together for my senior project at the Art Institute Online in 2008. In about 6 weeks, I formulated the concept, wrote the story, designed and modeled the character, props, and environment, rigged & animated ‘Dynamo’, implemented special effects, rendered, composited, and finally edited the film.  Needless to say, this labor of love inspired MANY sleepless nights.

Looking back, I can point out all kinds of things that I would have polished up had I had more time. And while it’s not exactly on par with ‘the big Boys,’ this ‘one guy’ is still pretty proud of the big effort that was put into it.

And yes, I got an ‘A’ in the class.”
