Interim Dean, School of Performance, Visualization & Fine Arts
overview

My research interests include the use of 3D computer graphics in design, entertainment, and education. This includes motion and control systems for digital characters, tools and pipelines in collaborative production environments, real-time graphics, procedural methods for design, and the visual design of interactive educational software. I have a professional background in visual effects production for films. Specifically, my work focused on the creation and performance of digital creatures in visual effects-heavy tentpole films.
