This week started with some location recon for some shots I’m planning to integrate into the showreel/viral video. This was an education in itself, as it turns out those framed shots you had in mind can be ruined by changes in the season and greenery on trees and just as frequently the vagaries of human memory. I’ll have to go back to the drawing board and scout some more locations.

It's been another solid week of training, as I've managed to wrap up three courses: After Effects Compositing, Texturing in Maya and Lighting in Maya.

After days missed due to man-flu and creating this website, I'm back in the training saddle. It's been a great week, and I'm happy to be progressing the training again.
