T-REX IN "THE MYSTERY DINOSAUR" FOR THE DISCOVERY CHANNEL ("JURASSIC PARK" USED AS REFERENCE)
THIS WAS THE THIRD MODEL BRENT EVER CREATED. HE USED A RIGHT HANDED MOUSE TO CREATE, AND HE IS LEFT HANDED. HE USED HIS OPPOSITE HAND.
• THIS MODEL WAS APPROVED BY THE SCIENTISTS AT THE BURPEE MUSEUM WHO ASSISTED WORLD RENOWN PALEONTOLOGIST DR. ROBERT BAKKER ON 'JURASSIC PARK' •

INDUSTRIAL LIGHT & MAGIC'S
On the left in a "blue render" is Brent's T.rex that is the third model he has ever created. He made this model with his right hand and he is left handed... he used his opposite hand. On the right, in a "grey shade", is Industrial Light & Magic's T.rex. This was completed by their "A" "Top" Team for Jurassic Park III in 2001. As you can see, Brent's T.rex, that he did with his opposite hand while a student, is just as convincing as ILM's top team on Jurassic Park... where two years upon leaving ACCAD at The Ohio State University, Brent became the "Best Practices Review Committee" as selected by the former CTO of Peter Jackson's Weta Digital (The Lord of the Rings). In Brent's opinion, ILM is the top visual company in the history of the human race.

COMPARISONS
ARTISTIC STATEMENT
A COMPARISON TO PABLO PICASSO
PABLO PICASSO AT AGE 9
BRENT ZORICH AT AGE 7
Pablo Picasso is one of, if not, greatest painters and artists of all time. It is only natural, when assessing the artistic skill set of Brent’s early work, that a side by side comparison be executed to determine comparable talents. On the left, is Picasso’s earliest captured work at 9 years old. On the right, is a scan of Brent’s earliest work at 7 years old. As you can see, at that early age, Brent’s “snake” at 7 years old shows a skill set that surpasses Picasso at 9. Picasso went on to be one of the greatest painters ever, however, comparing him to Brent might not be a fair assumption because unlike Picasso, Brent does not paint every day, so his skill set is subdivided in design engineering, industrial design, architectural design, engineering programming, and illustration. Brent is not Picasso… he is Leonardo DaVinci… just as much a scientist as an artist. This will be key in assessing value when staffing for the creative portion of a computer graphics project: both as an independent contract, and as a staff chief visual officer that can earn more than ten million per year. Note, with the overall surpassed skill set of Picasso in non painted categories, Pablo Picasso’s work at times has sold for up to 100 million dollars per piece. The future is bright.
