This piece was created as a music marketing tool for the band Couch Dog to aid their viral "Dial Tone" single campaign. It doubles as a photo booth and includes a vintage red phone that plays custom audio when picked up.

This piece is built to scale with the standard American phone booth and is crafted primarily out of wood and plexiglass. I was working on a tight budget for this piece, so most of the materials seen here are recycled.

Initially, I created a CAD model using standardized wood sizes to guide my process in creating a realistically sized and proportioned piece. This aided in planning my build process along the way.

The phone booth includes a signable wall (or rather "guest book") inside for visitors to sign and doodle. Couch Dog's local music community was able to participate and nearly filled a full wall of the booth with personalization.

Based on a prop from the animated TV series RWBY. Made of a telescoping wood stock and gator board exterior. When fully transformed it stands about 8 feet tall.

Custom made stilts fashioned out of wood, metal strapping, foam, and PVC. The stilts are comfortable to walk in and mimic the appearance of a backward-facing joint (bird-like).

Based off of a design from the Blizzard video game, Overwatch. Made primarily of EVA foam, recycled plastic materials, and a vacuum-formed helmet.

Mechanical and magnetic stops keep the prop in an "open" position that when released return it to its smaller form.

Blueprints drafted in reference to the animation that helped guide my process. They show how the components interact as well as the scale of the prop.

This build, inspired by a design from Overwatch, was the most complex project I have done and incorporated many different disciplines of fabrication, including electrical engineering, PVC framework, vacuum-forming, foam crafting, etc.

This is the initial frame of the mech - crafted out of heat-bent PVC and later covered with shaped EVA foam for the cosmetic shell. The frame attaches to a military pack (called the Molle flight pack) that allows it to sit comfortably on the shoulders of the wearer.

Arm component close-up.

This armor costume includes "wings" that spring open from a closed position.

Made from a cardboard shipping tube, EVA foam, and lathed wooden “bullets.”

The helmet of the visor was created from a positive plaster mold and a vacuum former that I made from scratch to fit in my kitchen oven.

Modeled after a prop from the Hellboy series. Created with recycled styrofoam, carved wood, PVC pipes, and foam.

The wings, made of ABS plastic, expand to a width of roughly 6 feet and fold down to fit behind the jetpack facade.

The objective of this years game was to shoot whiffle balls into a hoop to score points, as well as scale a hanging rope at the end of the match. My team's robot has a rolling intake to pick up the balls from the ground and utilizes a pixi-cam visual tracker and depth sensors as a self-targeting shooting mechanism.

Our original climbing design uses finger-like waterjet cut parts that rotate to catch the rope, allowing the machine to scale 3 feet in under 3 seconds.
