01 / A selection of what I do
THE WORK.
From the first concept to the final pixel.
Games, film, brands, and the worlds between.
8 of 14 projects
FIELDWORK / Site inspections & reality capture
ON SITE.
IN DETAIL.
Beyond the frame starts in the field.
Good visualization starts with understanding the place. I connect on-site documentation, reality capture, and technical 3D production to help turn complex environments into usable scene data.
CAPTURE / SPATIAL CONTEXT
Bring the site
into the scene.
LiDAR, photogrammetry, videogrammetry, and reference imagery provide complementary views of an environment. The goal is organized source material with the context needed for alignment and reconstruction.
Discuss an inspectionTechnical photography & video
Documenting site context, details, sightlines, camera viewpoints, and lighting conditions to support visualization and reconstruction work.
From captured data to usable scenes
Point-cloud preparation, scan retopology, texture reprojection, and camera alignment connect field material to editable production geometry.
Inspection scope and capture requirements are coordinated with the project’s engineering or reconstruction team.
CURRENT / Selected development & workflow engineering
BUILT TO SOLVE.
The tools behind the work.
3D art, animation, and innovative tools—from concept to final delivery.
01 / GEOSPATIAL RECONSTRUCTION
GeoFusion Studio.
A workspace for bringing geospatial reference data, photogrammetry, point clouds, and production geometry together inside 3ds Max.
Ongoing software developmentAnchor the scene with KMZ/KML reference data. Bring scans and imagery into a shared coordinate system, then verify the alignment with control and check points.
02 / PRODUCTION SOFTWARE
One toolkit.
Connected workflows.
Developing the 4ensic Toolkit: a shared workspace for repeatable technical 3D tasks, with a consistent interface and guided production steps.
- Mesh assembly and scene preparation
- Animation baking and unit conversion
- Progress reporting and diagnostics
- Responsive tools for 3ds Max
03 / CAPTURE & DATA
Point clouds.
Practical control.
Tools for converting geometry to point data, sampling surface color, filtering spatial regions, and preparing exports for downstream workflows.
Explore the workflow
Surface, vertex, and edge sampling; world and local coordinate handling; color-aware exports; and process visibility for long-running tasks.
04 / SIMULATION TO STORY
Data in.
Motion out.
Developing simulation-to-animation workflows that connect reconstruction data with editable 3D scenes and animation pipelines.
Explore the workflow
PC-Crash, VirtualCRASH, and HVE data handoff; transform and unit handling; animation baking; and speed-report workflows across technical 3D production.
05 / RECONSTRUCTION CRAFT
Source detail.
Editable surfaces.
Recent workflow work combines scan retopology, controlled surface edits, texture reprojection, and multi-camera alignment.
Explore the method
Rebuild dense scan geometry into an editable mesh. Use soft selection and conform tools to shape the surface, then reproject the original imagery. Check camera field of view and edge continuity when building connected views.

TO THE PIPELINE
Built for
the workload.
I build computers and know the hardware behind the work. That hands-on understanding extends from component selection and troubleshooting to the systems that keep 3D production moving.
Let’s talk hardwareCustom workstation builds
Choosing and assembling CPUs, GPUs, memory, and storage around the demands of the creative workflow.
Cooling, power & storage
Understanding the balance between performance, thermals, power delivery, capacity, and dependable day-to-day use.
Diagnostics & troubleshooting
Tracing hardware and software issues across workstations, drivers, rendering applications, and production dependencies.
Render & remote infrastructure
Experience supporting virtual workstations, shared storage, licensing infrastructure, and render-farm workflows.

THE DETAIL BEHIND THE IMAGE

AN ARTIST’S EYE.
A TECHNICAL
MIND.
I’m Jeremiah Fyler.
Technical director. Artist. Problem solver.
I bring together production leadership, hands-on 3D craft, and forensic visualization. My work connects cinematic storytelling with the technical discipline needed for litigation, reconstruction, and engineering-led investigations.
From LiDAR and photogrammetry to simulation data and final animation, I translate complex inputs into clear, technically grounded visuals. I also build custom workstations, troubleshoot production hardware, and develop the pipelines and infrastructure that help artists deliver them.
