3D Technical Animations – Loklo Media
I believe that there are a lot of blog readers who never venture over to “the other side” of my site – the actual business side, where I offer 3D animation services for Architectural visualization, engineering, process/plant function animations and more. It’s really fun to be able to explain these different designs, and processes in 3D. Not only do I get to work in either Blender or 3DS Max (whichever gets the job done better, often both combined), but I get to actually learn all of the details involved with the system I’m showing.
One of the things that my previous clients love about me is that I’m not just a computer guy. I do love and know a lot about computers – Windows 95 thru 7, Linux, Mac OS X + hardware. I mean, I did go to school for electronics and computers. But I also grew up in the oil and gas industry of central eastern Alberta – so I’m very well acquainted with hands on stuff.
I rebuilt my first car (a 1965 Plymouth Fury III (second “story”)). I worked as a pipefitter and pipeliner as well as hotshot truck driver, small crane operator, and infrequently operated other heavy machinery – and loved it (most of the time). Though I love the computer and 3D stuff better. So when a client says “run some pipe from this building to that skid” – I know that flanges, valves, 90’s etc are needed. I also worked for a couple years as a custom house framer in Calgary – so I know how to swing a hammer and miss my finger. I know what a gable vs cottage roof is, as well as things like fascia, and the underlying structure.
So please head on over to www.loklomedia.com when you need that process or design illustrated. It’s great for print as well as video for either sales, pre-sales, or training purposes.
