The ATLAS project, a scifi story told in 4 immersive scenes, created over the course of 9 months during 2022.
Originally intended as a community collaboration, it turned into a personal project, exercising toy photography on a new level, resulting in some personal favorites in my portfolio.
During autumn 2022, 2023, and 2024 a trilogy of gothic-themed collaborations was hosted on The Workshop Discord.
Community members submitted MOCs inspired by the gothic period, all with an autumn twist in spirit of the season.
All the submissions can be admired in the Gothic: Mistlands, Gothic: Twilight, and Gothic: Nocturnal Flickr groups.
In recent years, immersive cinematic photography has become one of my favorite fields to combine my passion of capturing depth, emotion and atmosphere with my love of creating worlds in bricks – freezing an imaginary moment in a still picture.
Having grown up with The Clone Wars series, I was delighted when the show returned with one final season to go out with a bang.
In memory of my favorite moments from the final season, I built “The Phantom Apprentice” in 2021. This model was later reworked and remained on display in my studio for years before it was finally parted out.
Its legacy lives on in a smaller diorama, which you can build for yourself using my custom building instructions available here.
Every once in a while, I post videos explaining my workflow for immersive scenes, editing and photography, in hopes that those resources may be of use to other creatives.
Inspiration and encouragement are valuable elements to improvement and a key component to a creative environment such as The Workshop.
This passion project grew its roots in 2020, when I sculpted my first custom figure accessory and it slowly developed into an important creative outlet and has created new opportunities and valuable connections as it went.
