Signals!
The county was having a hard time getting drivers to obey the new HAWK signal placed at an intersection with frequent accidents. It was heartbreaking when I went on location to do reference photography. There were small altars placed in every direction for children, mothers, and fathers hit and killed in this intersection. The importance of the project was very clear. Give it a watch and let me know if this helps you understand how this (admittedly) initially confusing signal

I was tasked with creating a quality demonstration for a client in the infrastructure business, having had to deal with a clogged culvert recently I naturally wanted to share the dangers of a clogged pipe. So, I created this quick animation to show just how impactful even seemingly porous obstructions like tree branches can be. All in all this demo took 2 days from concept to shipped.

This is a an application we created to allow Texas Children's Hospital to render out custom videos for prospective donors. The user would pick the type of signage they wanted to show the donor and then put their name or message onto the sign and render out a video showing what their name would look like on that section of the hospital. Before reaching out to us they were spending a lot of time to create single images in photoshop to show patrons. Our application was able to
