During the summers of 2003 and 2004, I worked my first industry job with a team of incredibly talented people led by Dan Maas on Disney’s IMAX documentary feature, Roving Mars. I primarily worked as a matte/texture painter, and modeler but also did a bit of animation. Notable work included painting textures and matte paintings for much of the Martian surface, as well as the Cape Canaveral launch site, modeling the below-deck body of the rover, modeling various sections of the launch vehicles, and animating the rover arm and camera in a few shots.
