I worked with a large team modeling photo realistic environments for Sony's internal Foster City studio, alongside the design and art staff, in order to bring the overall game vision to life.
Treanor Brothers Animation
Senior Artist 10/00-Present
My duties at Treanor Brothers Animation Studio are as diverse as editing, rotoscoping, and concept design but primarily consist of modeling and texturing. Therefore, my skills are extremely diverse and can be utilized in many facets of design development. As an artist on the team, it was my duty to work closely with the director to create storyboards and art that could be used to convey a sense of vision to our clients. Thus, the experience gave me a good sense of composition and eye for dynamic camera angles, poses, and overall set layout.
