NEWS:
5/11/06 - Yeah, I know been a while. But i have good reasons. I'm proud to announce that Ava Elliott Watson has joined the world. She was born on 3 /11/06. She's healthy and happy. Now down to other business.
I will be launching my new site soon. The design/layout is finally completed and now I just have to put it together. I'm still at Raven Software, and currently working on Wolfenstein for the X360. I can't say what other projects may or may not be going on, but anyone that has been to E3 or seen footage... Marvel: Ultimate Alliance is going to kick ass!
A new demo reel will be put up soon. Unfortunately it will have some old stuff with just some personal work that I have done and will be doing. Can't show anything from my work for the passed year because "ssshh...it's a secret" but not really. Just can't show it. I'm hoping that the launch of my new site and new design will include many new animations.
That's all for now...but remember. " FEAR THE LUCHA!"

11/12/05 - Alright, so I have been neglecting my site for awhile and I'm ashamed of myself. But I have BIG news. Quake 4 has hit the shelves and all is going well with it. Getting good reviews and good feedback. I should have some of my work from it up on my site shortly. Just gotta sift through it all and find the good stuff.
Othe big news! We have officially announced the title that I was hired by Raven to work on...*drum roll* WOLFENSTEIN for the X360. I'm very happy to be on this major project and I can't wait for the screens and trailers to hit the net. Its definately going to give everyone a kick in the pants.
FINALLY, the best news of all. My wonderful wife, Megan, and I found out awhile back that we were going to be parents again. Just recently, we got the ultrasound that showed another baby girl! We are so excited! The baby should be around for St. Patrick's Day (due date) and we can't wait to introduce her to the world.
One final thing. I am currently seeking some freelance work. If there is anyone interested, please feel free to contact me. Thanks.

5/19/05 - Time for a new update. I've put up my Motion Capture/Keyframe Demo from Wrestlemania 21 for the Xbox. Also, the trailer for Quake 4 is now available...you can check it out at www.gamespot.com. Enjoy, I'm really stoked about it.

5/07/05 - Wow, it's been a long time since I updated. However, I've been abit busy. I'm no longer at Studio Gigante in Chicago. I've moved further north (great for a florida boy) to Raven Software in Madison, Wisconsin. I'm happy to say I just finished up my tasks on Quake IV and am now working on an undisclosed game. I'm also in the process of getting my wrestlemania 21 demo up on my site since I've not got anything up there from under a year. I promise I will keep the site more updated now. Also there is a chance I'll be redesigning it soon. Be good

5/16/04 - Well, I've landed a job. I'm an animator at Studio Gigante Inc.in Chicago. I've been here for a month now, and must say that I absolutely love it. I'm also doing some mocap acting. That's right...me in a full spandex suit...scarey! As I have said previously on the news page, I am redesigning my site and am going to update it with as much new stuff as I can. Most of my stuff on here is a few months old, but I am currently designing some new animations and coming up with many ideas for new things.
Please Be Patient, and you can still contact me through my e-mail on this site. Thanks and talk to you all soon.
Thanks..
Ryan Watson
