Hope everyone’s having fun with #DMZ! 🫡
On my very first day at @InfinityWard, I was entrusted with tackling the intro 1P anims & helping out with the tutorial mission 🐶 😅 It’s been awesome seeing it all come together and finally out in the wild!
Huge thanks to everyone on the team for being so welcoming, collaborative, and patient while I ramped up. Solid group of devs, man. Proud to be a part of it! 🙏

A few weeks ago, I got the chance to reunite with some of the old crew and joined this incredibly talented & passionate team at IW. Excited for what's ahead! 🔥 #MW4

Can't believe it's been 10 years since the release of Uncharted 4! Here's an excerpt from my 2017 Animation Exchange talk on creating the chase sequence.

Some early death anims for the game now known as #Deadlock . You can probably see these still on Professor Dynamo if you look close. #animation. Whether Games or Feature film, you can always add details to your work to enhance what the viewer/player experiences. #havefun

Atticus joins forces with Ekon, the legendary monster-slayer. Together with Condor, the team journeys deep into uncharted lands, venturing farther into Highguard than any Wardens have.
Watch “Skydrift” now to uncover what secrets the lost relic could unveil⛰

After centuries of being forgotten, the lost continent of Highguard has reappeared. A team of Wardens led by Atticus now ventures through the ringways to secure the Shieldbreaker and unlock the secrets of this mystical land.
Watch "Wardens" and discover what was once lost now✨

We are devastated by the loss of Vince Zampella.
Vince was one of a kind—a pioneer and creative force whose passion, humor, and leadership shaped not just legendary games played by millions, but profoundly affected his teams and the people who made them.
Many of us at Wildlight were fortunate enough to work with Vince, and these experiences remain foundational to who we are today. To us, Vince was a mentor and a friend. His spirit, his belief in bold ideas, and his love for the craft continue to live on in our work, our relationships, and how we treat the people around us.
Our hearts are with Vince’s family, friends, and the many teams across the industry who are grieving. He was a titan who will never be forgotten, and we miss him dearly.
Halloween is next week, and we still don't have this Mickey masterpiece available in glorious HD.
@DisneyPlus, there's still time 🥲🙏🥲🙏🥲🙏
10+ years ago, leads at the time gave me complete creative freedom to choreograph, animate, & edit a Ryu Hayabusa fight seq. Of course I did the next logical thing: adding a 1000ft+ Akira exploding Izuna drop 😂
🥷 Still one of my favs!
