Rigid Body Dynamics test


3DS Max Reactor Test Simulation from Kat Hulka on Vimeo.

This video was created using 3D Studio Max's Reactor simulator. We needed to test out our new render farm at the office, so this was the guinea pig.

my first modular function!

To share with you my nerdy(er) side, I'm starting to learn ActionScripting, and starting with AS3. I wrote my first custom modular function today and I'm super excited! Horray!

function moveShape(shapeName:MovieClip, vertMovement:Number, rotAmt:Number, alphaAmt:Number):void
{
shapeName.y -= vertMovement;
shapeName.rotation += rotAmt;
shapeName.alpha = alphaAmt;
}

moveShape(blue_mc, 120, 5, .3);
moveShape(orange_mc, -30, 12, .9);
moveShape(purple_mc, 175, 50, .5);
moveShape(yellow_mc, 30, 0, 1);


I know I still have a loooong way to go, but hey, it's a start!

Human Giant - Season 2

The hysterics of Paul, Rob and Aziz continue with season 2 of MTV's super sketch comedy show Human Giant. Adam and I were brought back on to create new animations, including the clip below. Watch the show! It rules.

work




Above are a couple room renders of a larger 3D environment I've been working on in the last few months. Users of this software will be able to navigate through the whole environment and interact with certain elements in the world, play games and watch videos on selected topics. These rooms were my first venture into the world of 3DS max. I found the switch over pretty easy.

Below is the first of maaaaany concepts for a new project taking place inside a computer. Just a little RAM hotel for ya. Still under major construction.


I did a little work on the M&Ms "Green is the new Color of Love" campaign for this Valentine's Day (including a 3D rotating m&m).
And lastly, an environment made of partially turbosquid models and partially my stuff for a virtual product demo. (product not included)
