It's so crazy how many people say shit with such confidence and conviction, and then end up dead wrong. That’s the internet for you…

Fuck it. I love nostalgia. Why stop at Polio? Let’s bring back the plague in time for the remake of #Nosferatu.

Adobe, why is this Substance plan so impossible to find? If you didn't know it existed, you'd think your only option is the $50/m plan. 🤨

Dear schools on LinkedIn, I don’t need a Masters Degree. Stop messaging me. In fact, in my industry, I’d probably be laughed at if I had a (useless) masters degree. Thanks for doing your research though.

Anyone have any experience with Collective.com? I'm looking for someone to handle taxes but this seems pretty cool... but expensive.

The weather is not cooperating. Need another sunny day to shoot the rest of this video, but the VFX are basically done. Here's my Nuke "script" Let me know if you have any questions! #vfx #nuke #nukex #aftereffects #adobe #adobeae #ae #adobeaftereffects #blackmagicpyxis #filmmaking #indiefilm

Ok one final one before I change the look entirely. This one is done with all particles from #TyFlow instead of using geometry as the source for the main explosion #VFX #Explosions #PhoenixFD #ChaosPhoenix #3DSMax

A little R&D explosion. #VFX #3dsmax #chaosPhoenix #chaosgroup

I’m excited. I’m doing a motion graphics project for a brand that’ll be on the live billboards in Times Square for New Years. #postproduction #aftereffects #timessquare #postchat #adobe #adobeae #adobeaftereffects #nyc

The desk setup. Replaced the #DavinciResolve Mini panel with a Micro. The Mini, as much as I love it, took up WAY too much desk space so this one is a nicer fit. #postchat #postproduction #postsky

Starting to mess around with Deep Compositing in #Nuke. Generating some DeepEXRs in #3DSMax and #VRay for volumetrics right now. Here we go... #vfx

It’s getting dark so early, I have to shoot my sunset shots at 3pm. 😵‍💫🥴

It's amazing what a few frames of roto can do to bring out details in a comp. So glad to have awesome tools available to us to create these awesome videos. #filmmaking #postproduction #nukex #VFX #postchat #postsky #nuke #nukevfx

Cool new #AdobePremiere update today. Rounded corners for clips. Bunch of other cool stuff. Going well so far.

Any good scripts on AEScripts.com that you guys recommend? Looking to get a few during the sale. #AfterEffects #Adobe

Maybe it’s best not to talk business with most “creative” people. Apparently, you’re a bad person if you’re not broke. 🤷‍♂️

One of my biggest mistakes in freelancing is not knowing and acting when you outgrow a client. I’ve stuck around longer than I should have when signs started to show that they’re shifting in another direction and that direction doesn’t include you.
