These are some images from the commercials that I have just
finished for McDonald's Latin America.

- Stats
Footage - 35mm,
3D - Maya
Compositing - Discrete Effect

- Spots
Disney's Treasure Planet Happy Meal
Mirimax Pinniccio Happy Meal
McDonald's Dollar Meal

- I was hired on a freelance basis to create the 3d elements
and create rough composite comps. We had about 2 weeks
to finalize all effects. (Sound Familiar.......)

Eek, Mc'D... I worked there once one school year, awful shit happened in there, believe me... They didn't give me time off to study, so I gave 'em the finger in return. As much as I hate McDollars, thumbs up to the good animation!

these pictures where for the Pinniccio Happy Meal spot,
the building mimics the same building used in the new
Pinniccio Live Action Film coming out soon.

I really enjoyed your DemoReel. It would have been a nice joke if the flying bug thing pulled out the electricity plug at the very end of the reel with the result of the screen going blank... :D

actually the bug footage was a short film that i worked on
and the film ended by the bug pulling out the power to my
computer and that ended the film. ill try and mix that in
at the end of my reel.
thanks for your comments
