Let me tell you, moving a family of three, two dogs, and an apartment full of stuff is not very much fun. It being the hottest week of the year in both Indiana and Missouri certainly didn't help much. It didn't help either that on our initial visit to Springfield that the van that we had borrowed w…

There are multiple ways to break into the game industry. I am going to go into a recount of my own personal experiences and how I landed the job that I did.

As I stated a couple of posts ago, I took every class I could that related to game development in my studies of Computer Graphics Technology at…

Whew, that title is a handful. Anyways, I figured I'd write up a little something on this little project that I'm currently working on.

Back on Mar 1st, 2007, the Discovery Learning Center at Purdue announced a Games-to-Teach competition that would provide a $150,000 grant to a team composed of Purd…

Okay, so I decided to re-up my GDnet+ membership and start using the Journal. I've been meaning to for awhile, but I just couldn't think of anything that I was doing that was really worth writing about. I've spent the past four years at Purdue University earning my B.S. in Computer Graphics Technol…

Okay, admittedly the only other few entries I've had were pretty lame in my journal. Who cares about houseplans? I'm not even going to post up my final project for that class.

I have been playing around with Maya a bit more and setup a skeletal system using forward and inverse kinematics for a robot…

Here are some .p…

Wow, it's been quite some time since I made that last update. I've finally started the fun classes in major at Purdue, so I'll finally have some cool stuff to put up shortly.

The two CGT courses I'm taking at the moment are CGT 241: Intro to Computer Animation, which is really more of an internediat…

I've decided to make the first entry in my developer's journal about the relationship I share with a very special friend of mine - Maya. She's a beautiful thing and I try to play with her for at least a little bit every night.

I became genuinely interested in working with Maya about a month ago and …
