SLAM BOLT SCRAPPERS
by Fire Hose Games
Is a fighting/building mash-up on the PS3 Network and Steam.
I was senior artist on the project from October 2008 until it shipped March 2011.
I worked on everything from animation, character and environment concepts, models, textures, and FX.
I also co-created the game trailer and managed the art pipeline and interns.

DANCE CENTRAL by Harmonix Music Systems was a flagship title for the Microsoft Kinect.
I had the pleasure of working with Harmonix as a member of the five-month pre-development team at Fire Hose Games,
hired to rapid-prototype ideas for game play. I was the team animator, creating twenty minutes of character dancing and
rhythmic background animation.

MAP MONSTERS by Bodsix Games was a Geolocation Collectible game designed by the designers of Magic the Gathering, Richard Garfield and George "Skaff" Elias.
I served as Art Director, responsible for character, environment, and HUD design and implementation under extremely short deadlines. I developed a non-linear system for managing contract artists that used an online wiki to structute asset-claiming, feedback and revisions without bottleneck.

Global Game Jam 2011: ICE BREAKER
For the theme "Extinction" my team made a two player battle for survival between
a penguin flock riding an ice flow North beside a judgemental Walrus
and a Crack in the Ice allied to a pack of hungry Killer Whales. XNA, 3ds max, Photoshop.

Global Game Jam 2010: THE LAST BULLFIGHT
For the global theme "Deception" and local themes "Rain, Plane, Spain," and "abstract"
my team made a bullfight game from the POV of the bull, and I based all art on the work of Pablo Picasso.

CLUB BUSTA BUENA
In 2003 I was the Artist-in-Residence at the Yerba Buena Center of the Arts museum in San Francisco, where
I and a programmer led 15 at-risk youth to create a complete video game in just 14 weeks.
The final product was a PC game set in a bizarre club where the player types dance moves and manages their drink intake to avoid dehydration.
