Link to Evergreen

In most of my independent projects the themes are often focused on concepts like memory, perspective, time, loss, and change. My newest, and most ambitious project yet, Evergreen, is a short animated film that explores feelings of love and loss and the rebirth of that love in others. It utilizes underlying themes of environmentalism as visual representations of emotional states. The project uses motion capture, manual animation, simulations, and photorealism through modeling and texturing.
