Passion Project | Title Sequence
Creating a TV show opener or movie title sequence has always been a dream of mine, and with House of Cards, I took my first step in making that a reality. This project was repurposed from a past one, where I added custom credits and crafted a new feel for the sequence. What makes this project special is that it's also a test of Blender's Eevee renderer, where I challenged myself to see how close I could get to high-quality, cinematic results without the long render times associated with traditional methods.
It’s been a creative experiment on multiple levels, and I’m excited to share the final result with you!

I had the awesome opportunity to work with Dr. Brian Foreman and his team to create this fun announcement for the Campbell Youth Theological Institute.
We all wanted something visually playful, but also a little candid. It was important to be frank about how careers have been viewed in the past, and how they can be viewed now and in the future.
