I'm Adam, a seasoned professional with a diverse skill set spanning multiple creative disciplines.
With nearly 25 years of experience in the visual effects industry, I've worked my way up from a Senior 3D Generalist and Compositor to roles such as CG Supervisor and Technical Director. My expertise encompasses rigging, dynamics, lighting, rendering, texturing, modeling, and compositing. I've led successful teams and developed entire pipelines for studios like Aaron Sims Creative and Masters FX.
Music has always been a passion of mine since childhood. From playing the drums to mastering the guitar, music has been a constant source of inspiration. I've been part of various bands, toured, and even opened my own recording studio, Trampled Fruit Records, in Phoenix.
Writing is another avenue through which I express my creativity. Whether it's crafting novels, screenplays, or short stories, storytelling is ingrained in me. I've written since childhood, and currently, I'm seeking representation for my time-travel adventure novel series, "The Roswell Paradox."
Programming is not just a career choice; it's a necessity in today's digital landscape. I've developed pipelines, tools, and scripts for studios, optimizing workflows and enhancing productivity. From Shotgun pipelines to Maya and Nuke tools, I've tackled various programming languages and technologies throughout my career.
My journey into programming began when I was very young, and since then, I've honed my skills in languages like Python, MEL, MaxScript, and more. I believe in the power of technology to solve problems and streamline processes.
In essence, I'm a multifaceted professional with a passion for innovation and a drive to excel in every endeavor I pursue. Whether it's creating stunning visual effects, crafting captivating stories, producing music, or developing cutting-edge tools, I'm dedicated to pushing boundaries and delivering excellence.
