This is a 3D animation of coins that I created for Aqua Lung. The coins were distributed as limited edition collector's items.

These are collector's coin designs created for Aqua Lung's Military & Professional division. The "Tip of The Spear" shark was based on a sketch from a co-worker. Like the Gorski design, I cleaned it up in Adobe Illustrator then sent the designs off to a coin factory. For this rendering, I rendered the final coin into Blender and did my lighting tricks to include all of the reflections that you might normally see on a silver coin.

These are all book cover designs created in Graphic, Photoshop and Blender. Most of these books have been published. "Unlidded Comics" can be found here "Doll Box de Los Muertos" can be found here "Downtown Playgrounds" is only a book cover design. It was never published. "Jump for Fitness" was originally released on iBooks. "Puzzle the Cat" can be found here "Healthy Salads" is only a book cover design. It was never published.

This is a 3-D animation of a sugar free Red Bull 4-pack that I created in Graphic, Photoshop Elements, Blemder and iMovie. I frequently use Adobe Premiere for video editing at work but at home iMovie works just fine.

This is a box design for the Proflex FX. The box was created in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. The items were sold in Dick's Sporting Goods and Bass Pro.

This is an Aqua Lung Sport PDQ display which holds a variety of snorkeling gear package design. I created the concept in Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. The package designs (and mockups) were all created in those same programs.

This is an Aqua Lung Sport Proflex fins box created in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.

This is a promotional video for a series of clocks I designed. Frita continues to be a bestseller.

This is a fluid 3D animation. I also put the music together for it. The music was also used for Aqua Lung's DiverLog video at Dema 2017.

I'm a trained graphic designer who has since become fascinated with the idea of bringing my designs into the realm of 3D animation. This video was produced in Blender. I use a custom built staging area in which to showcase my designs. This fin was sold at Dick's Sporting Goods and Bass Pro. The box was created in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.
