Land Rig For Print

This was a project I did that was supposed to see print in an industry magazine. I handled everything except for modeling the rig, which was supplied to me and is a pro-e model.

Recent videos

Tooling videos

TDX-1250 Tooling video from Cameron Keffer on Vimeo.

These videos were made to showcase 1 specific piece of equipment, which is why everything else in the scene is white. Pretty basic animations, but they made for good sales tools. For these I did everything start to finish.

Line of Sight study

CMHI Driller from Cameron Keffer on Vimeo.

This was done a few years ago when a customer wanted a line of sight study done from the driller's chair to make sure there were no obstructions to the driller's sight during drilling operations. Once again, I did everything on this from start to finish.

Standbuilding Video

This is a recent standbuilding video my group has done. This was done as a team, and I handled rigging, modeling, and some layout responsibilities.

Rigging test

ST rig test from Cameron Keffer on Vimeo.


This was a quick rigging test for an iron roughneck. The equipment was set up with a custom control object that allows animators to control all the functions of the equipment without having to change the object they have selected. It also allows them to edit the equipment's keyframes and curves once again, without having to select different objects, thus speeding up animation workflow.

This is what the control object looks like in the scene. To animate with it, you simply select the object and then edit the controls in the toolbar on the right side of the screen.

HDRI Lighting



Update on the Mazdaspeed 6: Learned about HDRI lighting and applied it to the previous model. The improvement is night and day. I was happy with the model before, but this change really makes it pop.

Powered spray bottle



A few renders from a project I did as a favor for a friend of mine. Friend was in a management class that required the class to come up with a company name, product, and ad campaign.

Modified Mazdaspeed6



This has become a sort of pet project for me, since I drive a modified 6 myself, and has undergone multiple revisions, and I'm sure will undergo more in the future. Model is based on the EDM/JDM spec mazdaspeed6/MPS Attenza. I tried to stick with aftermarket parts that actually exist, but couldn't resist amalgamating elements from multiple front ends to create a bumper/lip that I wished existed, though I'm thinking of going back to the standard speed6 front bumper and going with the AUTOEXE lip to go with the AUTOEXE grill. Wheels are based on a set a friend of mine runs, though I'm thinking of changing them to represent the set that I run personally. Also, I'd like to get around to giving the car an interior and filling the engine bay so that I can show this as more than just a shell. On the whole though, I am pleased with how this has turned out.
