A recent trailer I had the pleasure capturing and editing for Among the Whispers: Provocation, a paranormal ghost investigation game by D&A Studios.

I recently got to test my reflexes while making the trailer for this boxing game by Raised By Screens. I was immersed playing it to make my script suggestion, and the developers helped me out with cheats and feedback. A very fun and smooth project!

Inspired by the movie Demonoid (81).

I wanted to try out if I could fake 3D with an animated painting with a different shading in each color channel. I mostly did this half a year ago, but polished it up today.

Split screens tend to be about as painless as doing the splits, but I made a tutorial might help a bit: youtu.be/n-g4g8PC2FY
