PROJECTS
In my free time, I have a few art related projects.
Since I was around 8 years old, I have always wanted to create my own dark ride (like the attractions found at Disneyland, especially the Haunted Mansion)...my DAARK VALLEY ORPHANAGE project is the culmination of these ideas, created as working miniature models and filmed as a POV 'on ride' experience.
I've also come up with some conceptual films (trailers, photos, rough storylines)...
