  • CONCEPT – CGCOOKIE GREASE PENCIL COURSE

    CONCEPT – CGCOOKIE GREASE PENCIL COURSE

    After a couple of month’s work, my new grease pencil course, CONCEPT has dropped! This requires CG Cookie membership for access, and focuses on the process of creating a single piece of concept art. It’s a super-quick course, and includes a lesson on color theory; shows my methods for making textures and palettes; and gives you a step-by-step guide to creating a concept sheet to hand over to a client.

  • DRAW!

    DRAW!

    DRAW! is a new FREE course from CG Cookie which will give you all the basics for understanding and using Grease Pencil. This course will serve as a basis for some up-coming courses on concept art, and eventually storyboarding!

  • MODIFY – a new CG Cookie Course

    MODIFY – a new CG Cookie Course

    I completed my second course for CG Cookie this year. It is a comprehensive guide to Blender’s Modifiers. Honestly, it was a daunting task, but I managed to create a comprehensive guide to all the main modifiers in Blender. These can be referenced at any time my students, whenever they require a primer on a particular modifier, or if they just want to see what it does.

    MODIFY is now streaming on cgcookie.com https://b3d.cgcookie.com/oblQ7A and is also available on Blender Market https://b3d.cgcookie.com/fzfhCi

  • DeNoise Podcast

    DeNoise Podcast

    So one of my recent projects with CG Cookie was producing the DeNoise podcast. It was a few months of wrangling the team to help test a method of recording; figuring out best practices for audio and video capture, and eventually editing the content into a coherent product. Jonathan Lampel took over at the end, and did an amazing job of setting up the RSS feed, publishing it all to platforms such as Spotify and iTunes, and other podcast platforms.

    I’m really proud of this one! You should totally give it a listen. Here is a link to the CG Cookie DeNoise landing page, but searching “DeNoise Podcast” wherever you listen to Podcasts should get you there.

  • PANELS

    PANELS

    In 2022, I completed a full start-to-finish course using Blender’s Grease Pencil to create a comic for CG Cookie. The results for the course as well as the finished comic exceeded my expectations. I put everything into the production to make sure all techniques, tips and methods were the most up-to-date, easy to follow and well researched as possible.

    It is currently available to CG Cookie members, as well as on Blendermarket as a stand-alone course.

  • Officially an Instructor at CG Cookie!

    Officially an Instructor at CG Cookie!

    So I’ve been a bit quiet on the Youtube and blogging front, but there’s a very good reason. After months of working with CG Cookie on a yet-to-be-released project, I’ve been brought on as an instructor. I will be producing a couple of courses to be released later this year, focusing on Grease Pencil, comic creation and storyboarding. It’s pretty exciting stuff!
