Considering the gent you're replying to is from Chicago, your gun control is probably considerably looser up north.

I grew this beard with my face.  I'm pretty proud of it.

Hoping for full Dumbledore eventually, but I'll keep updating you all.  This is face art, and I do it for all your patchy effeminate faces.

Yarr!!
Ye'd best not be calling th' dread Captain Chinbeard a "gent," me buck-o...Lessen ye'd like to taste me lead!! <brandish flintlock>

Yeah, I'm sure. We also drive big trucks

Actually, Chicago is among the strictest gun controlled cities in the US of A though their crime rates are still appalling. What they need is this:

Adding to the "not my creation, but definitely my work" category, I cut together a new reel the other day:

Why thankyou, good sir!

I wish I could show mattes, breakdows, etc. but studios often don't like to hand that kind of material out to artists.  Although, RSP's website has some breakdown material for some of the shows we have worked on, which you can find here: http://www.rsp.com.au/portfolio.htm

A lot of it is just a bunch of roto, track marker removal, and paint work for crew removal, reconstruction of edges that get lost in a key, and changes to sets (the first shot being one of those). Doing those tasks leads to a compositing role, which is much more exciting, and what you see in the Prometheus shots:
- Comping the HUD-like screens onto the panes of glass on-set
- The storm sequence had some pretty extensive wire removal and retime work done, and then the smoke and particles were added over the top
- flamethrower stuff was some pretty extensive reflection reconstruction on the helmets, since they reflected so much of the crew and unwanted parts of the set.
- charlize running down the hallway was a set extension (start of shot, there was a greenscreen just outside the doorway at the back of the room)
- smokey hallway at the end also had some pretty extensive retiming, paint cleanup, and repair work. Then there's the smoke.

As for the whole "collaborated with other artists" tag:
- The roto/paint shots were often split between a couple of people, purely to get the work completed faster.
- Most of the comp shots were started by others, which I inherited and took to final.

I still need to write a shot-specific breakdown for everything, which will go up on my website when it's finished.

Haha, totally!

100% Nuke.

I lurked around CGTalk for a little bit a few years ago, so you might've seen a post or two from me. Nothing worth remembering though

Learned how to import images into Audacity and glitch them using effects.

It's a Pac-Man!

Fucking cool.
