Hey gang! Are there any Melbourne/Victoria-based 3D modellers looking for short contract work right now? Summerfall is currently on the lookout for contractors to do hard-surface environment work for a new prototype, like furniture and all that. 🔨🪑

Send through portfolios! 🙂 Cheers!

After juggling five projects simultaneously since November, I'm finally back down to just one (Hopefully). Now I have to figure out what I used to do in my spare time again...

So Flash, the program that started thousands of animation careers (Including my own), single-handedly fueled the early internet animation scene, and is still used by several studios in full scale productions...is being killed by Adobe for basically no reason?

Hey yo ! ✨
I'm looking for some animators to test out my horse rig !
(if you're also up to make me a canter/trot/anything cycle for my demo, I'd be very grateful. Of course, in exchange you'll be able to use it in your demo as well !)
(shout out to Hutdieb for the model !)

I did some work on All Her Fault last year, so I was scrubbing through the series to locate the shots I contributed to. I believe it's supposed to be set in Chicago...but the second episode takes place almost entirely in the Melbourne Convention Centre...

I was in Western Australia for my brothers wedding back in October. During that time I packaged 75 kgs of stuff from my parents place to send over to Melbourne. Books, CDs, vinyl, etc. Things I left there when I started travelling for work, that I now finally have space for again

Earlier this year I did a talk called Malys: the Art of Demon-Making at Freeplay Angles!

It's about personal reflection and expression, and converting that to horrifying demons, made for @summerfallstudios.com's newest roguelite exorcist deckbuilder MALYS! 🫵
