Slusho laptop and demo reel...

Now that I have some of this WordPress stuff figured out... I should follow up on my "Slusho Zoom" post from earlier. My video was chosen as one of the top five entries in the competition! That means:

Freakin' sweet laptop! It also means I need to find a home for my "old" one, which really isn't that old. They have comparable features, but the Alienware wins. When rendering side-by-side, the Slusho! laptop rendered every super complex 3D frame a full minute faster. That doesn't sound like a lot, but consider that one second is 24 of said frames and that a minute would be 1440... were talking a full day!

I should also post my new demo reel:

The latest version of my VFX demo reel- a small collection of some of the projects I have worked on. Displayed here are samples of my 3D work (modeling, texturing, rigging, animation, lighting, and rendering- mostly using Maya) and my compositing work (using After Effects, combustion and flame). (Yes, I took the contact information out because this is for showcase purposes only.)

Which I made with my new laptop. It's my first official demo reel, so I'm excited. Makes me feel "professional" for once...I have more catching up to do, but this will do for now.
