Hughes Marino

In this video I was asked to cover up some natural skin blemishes on the narrator. This process is also called beautification. I used photoshop first to create a clean image without the blemishes. After that I brought in the clean plates into After Effects and tracked them accordingly. This still image shows were the blemishes were before, and the final video is below.

Red Bull Air Race-Las Vegas

The Red Bull Air Race is held around the world and features some of the world best pilots. I was contracted to create the smoke that would trail one of the computer generated planes. The plane is shown at the be introduction of the video. The rough mock up is shown first as well as the final video which was shown on a huge jumbo tron in downtown LasVegas. I used Trapcode Particular to create the smoke. I created longer and different variations, but since the transition happens quickly, the final animation was shorter.

Terminator

I created this video because Terminator 2 is my all time favorite movie. It started my curiosity and love for VFX. This year marks the 30 year anniversary of the original Terminator movie. I created the animation using the puppet tool and displacement maps in After Effects. The music is from the Original Terminator 2 Soundtrack. The terminator bust is from Side show Collectibles. I hope fans of the franchise enjoy my video.

Intel RealSense



This video was created for Intel via StaticJoe Studio and the Clarity Creative Agency. I motion tracked every tablet and screen that is shown in the video. I also rotoscoped the actors and elements that interacted with the screen to seamlessly integrate the new screen images. This new addition was shown for the first time at the 2014 CES show in Las Vegas.

Qualcomm Snapdragon



I worked on this short video via StaticJoe Studio and Film35mm productions. In this case I tracked the water bottle in the main frame as well as the bottle in the upper left hand corner. Then I blurred the label of the name brand.
