"Déjà Vu" premieres in NYC!

My senior thesis animation is complete. It had its premiere screening at the new SVA Theater on April 10th, 2009, and it was a delight to see it on the second largest screen in NYC!

Starting to render...

A composite of the characters in the theatre environment.

Early credits

I have been extraordinarily blessed to have had the support of two amazing cg artists. Rogelio Olguin (co-creator with Chris Haniszewski on their thesis "Abyssus" (http://thesisabyssus.blogspot.com/) has produced this wonderful theatre for "Deja Vu". He modeled, textured and lit the environment.




The matte painting of Central Park was created by Jesse Flores (http://jesseflores.blogspot.com/), and it is equally spectacular in scope and execution. This small version does not do it justice.

Awesome work.
