Demo reel 2013!

This is some cool animation I've worked on over the past few years.

I've worked at theVisualMD.com for most of my professional life, so they own most of my animations. (Don't steal anything!)

 

Shot breakdowns available on this page.

Modeling, animating/rigging, look & feel, lighting, effects. (3ds Max + Fusion)

©theVisualMD. Septin9 DNA in the blood, January 2013.

I generally animated, set up the particles (blood and background), rigged the DNA, set up the look and feel (lights, shaders, renders), and composited the scene in 3ds Max and Fusion. I modeled the vessel and the erythrocytes (3ds Max + Fusion).

DNA was constructed/extrapolated from a short DNA fragment in the PDB.

©theVisualMD. Pollen, October 2012.

I segmented the pollen grains, identified them as well as I could, animated and rendered from 3ds Max, and composited in Fusion. (This was for a story about allergies.)

©theVisualMD. BDNF binding to TRKB receptors before and after exercise, February 2012.

Animation/rigging, rendering, and compositing. I modeled the TRKB receptor based on fragments around the web, and constructed a homodimer of BDNF from a heterodimer available in the PDB.

My old 2010 demo reel. I really do like the music.
