Hey Everyone!

I've put together a demo reel of some of the work I did on Golden Axe: Beast Rider. While the game isn't exactly knocking the critics off their feet, I'm really proud of the game we put together, and am still amazed at the amazing opportunity I had to work with some of the most talented people I've ever met, including animator Sonny Santa Maria and concept artist Silvio Aebischer.

Thanks for looking!

Really cool. Love the "caution spike" sign.

Awesome animation. More or less how much time you spent on each animation?

Cheers!

Thanks everyone :)

I have made no such promise, Sam. However, the game is better than what the reviews are saying.

Thanks, David. Well, the amount of time spent would depend on the animation. Things such as the skeleton attacks and navigation were about a day a piece, where the first and last shots (the grapples with the Secondborn Twin) I would guesstimate took about a week a piece.

Thanks again!
