A Long, Overdue, Exciting Update!

It's been quite a while since I have posted an update and what better way to come back than by sharing some exciting news, right?



Exocortex released Species v1.0 today (the plug-in I helped Eric Thivierge and Chris Covelli with). I designed and did the scripting work for the custom synoptics that come packaged with Species. I'd like to thank Eric and Chris for approaching me and giving me the opportunity to work on such an awesome project. I can't wait to see what users do with it! You can find more information about Species here:

On another note, I'm currently freelancing in Dallas, TX over at Janimation. This is the first time I've traveled a considerable distance for business and I'm happy to have the opportunity to finally do so. Also, it's considerably cold in New York and Jersey this time of year.

I plan on moving this blog over to a full fledged site with my own domain and an updated demo reel in the upcoming months as well, so be on the lookout for that. There's another plug-in collaboration that I'll be working on rather soon too. Plenty of things happening, so stay tuned!

'Reel' Page Added & 'AFFS Showreel 2010'!

I've added a 'Reel' page at the top of the site. This is where I will be posting any and all reels I complete in the future.

In addition, I've added my 3D Generalist Showreel for "Abby's Flying Fairy School". Please take a peek and let me know what you think :)

'WPS Hands Are Overrated' Spot Added to the Gallery!

The second addition to the gallery is a thirty second spot created for Citi. It was used as part of Citi's sponsorship campaign for Women's Professional Soccer. I'm told it was displayed as an advertisement on the Jumbotron throughout the 2010 WPS Season.

'Gallery' Page Added!

I've added a gallery. Click on the 'Gallery' page and have a look for yourself.

The first addition to the gallery is a thirty second clip showcasing three of the many props I modeled & rigged for  Sesame Street's "Abby's Flying Fairy School".

Figuring Out the Basics

I'm still messing around with all these Blogger customizations and settings. I'll also have to look over the following links to see how to post future Python code snippets on this blog:

That's it for now. I mainly wanted to post this information for myself later ;)

Welcome!

Welcome to my new 3D Blog, where I will show works in progress, share industry news and other ongoings, and track my career/education in the 3D industry.

If you haven't figured it out already, my name is Mitchell Lotierzo; currently a Freelance 3D Generalist in the Greater Philadelphia Area. I've worked in the industry now for a little over a year, mostly at a studio located in Westfield, NJ known as SpeakeasyFX. I was a skilled generalist who mostly assisted the Technical Director with modeling & rigging duties.

My hopes are that this blog will help not only myself, but others that may stumble upon it as well.
