I&#8217;m really going to try and stick with it and give more love to my site.<\/p>\n<p>So where to start&#8230; hmmm&#8230;\u00a0 2012 was awesome to see in theaters! I&#8217;m so proud to have worked on that movie, the FX turned out AMAZING! Congrats to all involved! It&#8217;s too bad we didn&#8217;t make the Academy Award list! I was hoping!\u00a0 &#8230; congrats to the other movies though, they deserve it! Avatar was such an amazing experience, it was literally mind blowing. I&#8217;m still in awe when I think about that movie. District 9 &#8212; with that budget they produced some uber bad-ass VFX! It was so fun to watch (especially the second 1\/2!).Star Trek &#8212; what an awesome re-vitalization to the series.\u00a0 I don&#8217;t think I could&#8217;ve asked for a better year in movies!<\/p>\n<p>Next up &#8212; as some of you know I worked on New Moon with Prime Focus (yeah yeah&#8230; I know&#8230;), and had a great experience doing some CG Water\u00a0 \/ Ocean stuff. I then worked with Blur again for a bit on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gametrailers.com\/video\/one-shall-transformers-war\/60793\" target=\"_blank\">Transformers: War for Cybertron<\/a>., and now, as it turns out I&#8217;m in Vancouver this time with Prime Focus on another feature (can&#8217;t tell you what though!).<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;.and one last bit&#8230; I said earlier that I was going to start spending more time with Houdini, and I have! Mostly fluids (since they&#8217;re so fun!) &#8230;here&#8217;s what I&#8217;ve been up to:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fx-td.com\/content\/misc\/boatwake.mp4\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.fx-td.com\/content\/misc\/boatwake.mp4<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fx-td.com\/content\/misc\/flood_corner.mov\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.fx-td.com\/content\/misc\/flood_corner.mov<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fx-td.com\/content\/misc\/morefluids.mp4\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.fx-td.com\/content\/misc\/morefluids.mp4<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fx-td.com\/content\/misc\/morefluids_particles.mp4\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.fx-td.com\/content\/misc\/morefluids_particles.mp4<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fx-td.com\/content\/misc\/voxelfluids.mp4\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.fx-td.com\/content\/misc\/voxelfluids.mp4<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fx-td.com\/content\/misc\/voxelwake.mp4\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.fx-td.com\/content\/misc\/voxelwake.mp4<\/a><\/p>\n<p>P.S&#8230; gonna try and update my reel soon&#8230; gotta get windows working again first though!
