What I'm Doing These Days

I have recently begun working at NVidia, where I am learning how to apply my knowledge of film rendering to current graphics hardware. I used work at PDI/DreamWorks where I wrote and support the renderer we use for Antz, Shrek and film effects work. I was at PDI for seven years and have screen credits in Shrek, Antz, Batman and Robin, and The Arrival. After Shrek won the first Oscar for Best Animated Film we all got to take our picture with the statue. Before PDI, I worked at Xaos Tools where I worked on a secret project which never amounted to much, along the same lines as places like Kalieda or anyone else who thought they could write some sort of scripting package to handle multimedia. Actually, I spent most of my time working on a neat little image processing package that also ended up in the trash. Before Xaos, I worked at Sun Microsystems where I worked in Technical Marketing for the advanced graphics products and helped write demo programs for Siggraph. I married Emily Sklar on August 26th, 2000. We moved to Soda Springs between; Auburn and Truckee in the winter of 2000. I continued to work remotely for PDI until I started at NVidia in July 2002. I work for three weeks at home and then spend a week in the office down in the Bay Area., |
