Designer Profile

I was sure I had a text file lying around somewhere that talked about this...

Well, I knew from the start that:

It had to be revelant to my work as a designer.
It should deal with my aspirations and my strengths.
It should talk about my design work.

My strongest pieces of work, so far, would have to be "Clockwork" (on that note, I should really post the file up here) and the animation I'm working on now, "Victory Moder."

Come to think of it, there's a strong theme of, well, "Superheroism" in a lot of my work. Only "CAT VS Mouse" is really exempt, and that has HORROR MOUSE running around in it. Personally, I feel it's more of an infatuation with the tokusatsu genre than anything else. That's what "Victory Moder" really is, I guess; my way of saying 'Thank you' to those series as a whole.

Tokusastu, defined by wikipedia:
"Tokusatsu (特撮?) is a Japanese term that applies to any live-action film or television drama that usually features superheroes and makes considerable use of special effects (tokusatsu literally translates as 'special effects')."

Think Power Rangers. That's tokusatsu.
Though in hindsight I keep saying/writing tokuatsu...

BLAME IT ON KABUTO! CURSE YOU TENDO, YOU'VE SPOILED ME FOREVER!
DECADEEEE
