 By now this is old news, but it's still big news, and I decided that people who visit my site should know about it! In January, 3D World Magazine published their 112th issue with a two page spread about me and the making of my short film, No Quarter. It was a huge honor to have my work featured in their Showreel section, especially considering some of the work that's been featured in previous issues. The VFS Blog did a short follow-up article about me being in the magazine. Overall, I'm very proud to have recieved all this recognition, even more than a year after my film was completed.
Also, I've decided to start updating my homepage regularly with entries like this. My site is over a year old now, and it's time to give it some fresh content. I have, however, been updating my animation, images, and resume pages with new content very regularly, so please keep checking back for new work. |
| My name is Mike Trent, and everything you'll see here was created by me. The main purpose of this site is to show off my animated short, No Quarter, which was created durring the last 6 months of my 2 years at Vancouver Film School. During my first year there, I was enrolled in the Foundation Visual Art & Design program, where I gained a broad knowledge of visual communication. My second year was spent in the 3D Animation & Visual Effects program, where I focused on learning character animation and created my short film. By the grace of God, I managed to survive both years, and came out with a wealth of knowledge and the skill to bring digital objects and characters to life. After graduaion, I moved home to Michigan, and I recently moved to Chicago to further my career. I am currently open to any and all job offers involving digital animation, motion graphics, editing, or any other field related to digital media. I would particularly enjoy any offers near Chicago. I love the snow, classic rock, and cooking dinner for two. Anything else you might want to know about me can be found on my resume or by asking me using my email adress below. I'm glad you came and hope you enjoy your stay! |
