ARG! Productions is a small, independent animation group headed up by Will White. We work on small animated projects with teams varying from 2 or 3 to 13 people. We work primarily in Flash with some Maya vector rendering. More information can be found on the ARG! Productions website. Li'l Kitty Jam Jams
The LKJJ project originally started as a pitch for an animated series, and then developed into a standalone short as an exercise in character exploration. My role as a producer was to organize a schedule and run online meetings, as well as pick up slack in any needed areas (animation clean-up, layout painting, etc.). The group working on this project has spanned up to 13 people total in all different areas (art, writing, music and sound).
Bryan Scary Music Video
Role: Producer/Digital Ink and Color/Background Painting/Asset Modelling An in-the-works animated music video for Bryan Scary & the Shredding Tears. The group on this project is small, consisting of myself, the creative director/lead animator, and outside help for rigging and some animation. In addition to production and schedule management, my role also included some basic animation and cleanup work.
Cake Town
Role: Producer/Background Painting/Programming
Originally conceived at a Game Jam for the XO Laptop, our goal was to create a simple game that could easily be enjoyed by someone who may not have had any prior exposure to video games. We wanted to use little to no language, considering that the XO will be distributed to developing nations worldwide. My role as producer consisted of organizing and running brainstorming meetings, learning the process used to create activity bundles our of our game to run on the XO, and assisting with other tasks during the 40 hour time frame we had to create the game (this included background painting and programming).
