Hello and welcome to 3dArtSpace.com. I'm Meats Meier and this is my portfolio of some of the projects that I have created. I'm an independent artist working in both the 2nd and 3rd dimension using Maya and Zbrush for modeling and animation. I use programs like Photoshop and After Effects to composite the images into Animations and high resolution Artwork. I also enjoy compositing 3d elements into live action DV and HD footage and then matching the colors and movement for seamless integration.
I take a lot of pictures, some of which you can see in the Photo section.
My biography, demo Reel, video interviews, and book appearances can be found in the
"This project was a long process and there is no way it could've been
done without the help of so many people like Travis Shinn (DP) , Meats
Meier, Chet Zar, everyone at Buddy Systems, OTMFC, Alan Hurley, and so
many more." - Brett-Patrick Jenkins

Fantastyka Magazine Cover
Wednesday, 06 May 2009
My "Reverse Gas Mask" image on the cover of the Polish magazine, Nowa Fantastyka. May 2009.
"Appearing since 1982, "Nowa
Fantastyka" is both an ambitious literary monthly and a colorful
magazine of art, film, science and cyberculture. In our view, science-fiction
is a genre of modern literature that should deal with the past,
the present and the future; it should concern itself with science,
civilisation, politics, religion."

the Art of Sketch Theatre show photos and video
Sunday, 22 March 2009
One hour timelapse of the beginning of the show.
The piece created for the show - "The Crows Deliver the Bad Babies." Original piece available at the Gnomon Gallery (site). Music: "Trekka" by Puscifer (puscifer.com).
Puscifer put on an amazing first set of shows in Vegas at the Palms casino on Valentines weekend. A bunch of new animations that I created were shown on the big screens. Me and my ninja friend Patrick were able to film all three shows while running around and didn't fall once. We got some good footage that I hope I can put to good use at some point.
BOB animation playing on the big screen.
Some of Patricks great photos from the weekend are HERE.
Zbrush for Illustration - HD resolution Training on Vimeo.com
This video training album was originally created with Zbrush 2.0. This video deals
with tools associated with creating a image and rendering it inside of
Zbrush itself without using any external art package. Not many of the
tools or techniques dealing with rendering have changed at all, so this training is still very
current to Zbrush 3.0 and on.
I have trimmed off the original first three hours as it deals with
modeling, since those modeling tools definitely have changed since the new
released.
There are six chapters included in this training.
The complete Zbrush for Illustration training was trimmed down to five minutes for people with A.D.D here.
The final Image can be seen here (2000 x 2000 pixel image that was scaled down from 4096 x 4096):
