JEFF CROCKER is a born-and-raised Los Angeles artist who enjoys many of the same things he enjoyed as a young boy: cars, trucks, robots, ray-guns, and post-apocalyptic wastelands where there are no cooties or homework. His love of visual effects has taken him from presidential kittens to pill-popping puppets; a giant squid to a cardboard robot; the Afghanistan War to the war on drugs. Digital compositing, miniature effects, practical rigs, motion graphics, animation, and everything in between. Always using each job to add to his ever-expanding skill set, Jeff has been employed by many excellent companies, including Comedy Central, ABC-TV, Adult Swim/Cartoon Network, Stan Winston Studio, Netflix, Oil Factory, and MTV. Jeff loves the colorful, the whimsical, and the exciting. www.Crockeronline.com |
