New laptop!

Posted by Mat on Jan 12, 2010 | 0 comments

I bought a new laptop from Dell just before the new year, and it arrived today!

Finding the right laptop for me was pretty tough.  I did a lot of shopping, and the options in Canada are very lacking compared to the US.  The main thing I was looking to upgrade from my old laptop was the graphics card.  The last machine had an integrated graphics chip and although the computer wasn’t great in the first place, the graphics were by far the weakest link.

New Year, New Site!

Happy New Year everybody!  I felt it was about time for me to make an update to my website, as in overhaul it.  I found I wasn’t updating as much as I would have liked, and I thought the reason might be because it just was too much of a hassle.  I decided to look into what this whole “blogging” thing is that the kids these days are raving about, and I’m glad that I did.

Job at Prime Focus World

I have been working at Prime Focus World (formerly Frantic Films) in Vancouver since the beginning of March, 2009 as a Rigging TD Contractor. I have been working on complex rigs for an upcoming feature film. Can’t say anything more than that!

Rigging TD Demo Reel

Posted by Mat on Jun 3, 2009 | 0 comments

I had to put together a character TD reel on short notice for Frantic Films back in January. The turnaround time was about 4 days. I feel I have a lot more I can show already today, but I decided I would post this anyways since it has been a loooong time since my last reel and I currently have nothing on here showcasing rigging!
