Justin Herman Plaza Fountain Animated
Here’s an animated gif of the fountain in Justin Herman Plaza (San Francisco). I created it by first capturing around 100 photos from various angles. These were then uploaded into the Autodesk Recap 360 cloud application for conversion into a model. This is a free service that can create 3D models from photos. Once the model was…

Animated BART
Created a little animation that represents waiting for my BART train. Watch for it… my train does arrive. Life of commuting in the bay area sure is a pain.
