I might end up doing some more tweaking on this. I think the glass could look better and I’m not in love with how the liquid pours into the glass, it needs a bit more randomness. For now, this looks pretty good to me.
Happy Holidays!

In this tutorial I show you how easy it is to bring your footage into PFTrack and then quickly take that data into Cinema 4D to begin to add your elements. PFTrack has many of the same features as Boujou and SynthEyes. PFTrack is a very robust program and what I cover in this tutorial only begins to scratch the surface.
If you have any questions let me know.
http://www.vimeo.com/8334432I updated my boards section with a few different styleframes that I did for a television spot that was going to be produced at Daily Planet ltd. Unfortunately Gettington for some reason decided to hold off on moving forward on any commercials right now.
I had a few people ask me what tools I use to create the craft beer video podcast I do with Ken Hunnemeder. Ken and I have been doing the podcast for a little over a year now and we have pretty much been using the same set up. There is no secret to getting a podcast off the ground. One great thing about podcasting is that you can do it without having a huge set up. In this video I go over the five main tools we use; a Canon HDV camera, iPhone, Blue Mikey, Flip HD & a Digital SLR. There are a lot of tools that can make podcasting easier and give you higher quality, but this is the setup the has been working rather well for us. I like to keep the kit rather small, it makes it easier to be mobile for when we’re going to interview brewers or going to festivals.
http://www.vimeo.com/8260362I join Nick Campbell in the latest episode of his Demo Reel Critique. The two of us look at three different reels from Kyle Richtsfeld, Andrew Cornett and Hein Lagerweij. Hopeful we gave some pointers and gave you some ideas on how to make your reel even stronger. If you’re looking to have your reel critiqued, leave a comment on Nick’s original post entitled Reel Critique Rules and Overview.
