My Work for Wendy's and Animal Planet's Augmented Reality Campaign




Wendy's kidsmeals released animal planet toys that each had their own Augmented Reality game (created for iPhone and the web):  a cat in a living room that chased mice and a ball of yarn; a black lab going after frisbees on a beach; a yellow lab going after tennis balls in a back yard, a chameleon going after crickets in a terrarium; a bird in a cage 'memory' game; and a fish in a tank going after food....  I created the terrarium, living room, beach, and part of the backyard environments, as well as rigged and animated the dogs.  The upper left corner is a video of the games being played on iPhone.

The next video is similar to the last, but it's just a longer compilation of clips from each game being played on the web.

CMAB Cows App - Accessorize Your...Cow Self?


This was a project for CMAB using Augmented Reality to have a cow head track on top of yours and you get to choose different accessories to adorn the cow's head.  I did a few 3D elements for this app...after you line your face up in the guide, a cow head pops on top of your shoulders.  You are then able to add different elements to the cow head like a beard, a nose ring, a top hat, etc.



I created the red lip texture, a pink bow, a top hat, a monocle, retextured a cowboy hat, created a bull nose ring, earrings, cateye glasses, and 'hipster' glasses.

Tic Tac Strawberry Fields



In association with the new Strawberry Fields Tic Tac flavor:  iPhone game where you bounce a strawberry from one "creampoline" to the next without falling in the dirt hole.  I modeled and textured all the pieces.  This was one game in a series of different games created for Tic Tac
