AN AWARD WINNING ADVENTURE
Sparky and Steel: Renegades is a 22 minute action-adventure short film I made starring an entirely original cast of 3D animated characters. The Story follows a trio of rugged adventuring canines searching for an ancient treasure led by the charismatic fox Sparky Slicktail, all the while being pursued by the vengeful General Arc and his army of White Wolf Soldiers. This short film serves as a second installment to an earlier project of mine, Sparky and Steel: Jailbreak (see below) and has received several awards for "Best Animation" and "Best Directing in Animation".

the first chapter
Sparky and Steel: Jailbreak was my first animated short film in the Sparky and Steel universe finished back in 2022. The film follows titular characters Sparky and Steel, a happy-go-lucky Red Fox and a gruff seasoned Grey Wolf, 2 outcasts captured by the evil White Wolf Clan as they devise a plan to work together and escape, creating an unlikely friendship between them. This film served as a challenge early on in my animation journey, creating a action-driven narrative with all original characters.
Complex Movement, New rig
After Renegades I took it upon myself to redesign Sparky's character model and rig, for both polish and versatility. In this test animation, I experimented in complex character movement and scene navigation, allowing sparky to jump, slide, swing, pounce, kick, and roll with the panache of an early 2000s gaming mascot.

A 30 Second speculative advertisement that aims to combine clever marketing with narrative character animation. The advertisement uses seamless effects to transport the viewer to the Mushroom Kingdom to watch Mario racing around Mario Circuit and zoom back to reality to remind the player that it's a "A world you can feel in the palm of your hand."
3D Renders
A collection of my strongest 3D Renders that explore a creative cabaret of posing, lighting, and 3D composition.
My flagship character and channel mascot, Sparky Slicktail is the perfect embodiment of my work, style, and personality. I updated his model to reflect the development I have undergone as an animator and 3D artist while still faithfully keeping his classic look intact. He's a perfect cross of adventurous, quirkiness, and heroism that I feel are reflected well in these beautifully lit renders.
SPARKY SLICKTAIL
Of course Sparky's universe is full of rich and fun characters as well. These renders all served as promotional material for Sparky and Steel: Renegades. I really wanted the Sparky and Steel universe to be something special, standing out with bold colors, bombastic poses, and a beautiful stylized world akin to something from a golden age 3D platform video game.
SPARKY AND STEEL CAST
I also have a passion for creating unique worlds and landscapes for my characters to live in. Environment design I feel is a crucial part in visual storytelling. Here's some of my hand crafted environments I have created that I am most proud of.
