Creature Box Challenge (final)

 

Artist Road Map

 

1. If you could project out past graduation, what is your overall career goal?

I am very flexible in regards to what company I would like to work for with the only requirement being a studio with stylized projects. At the start I am looking into more midsized Indy or AA studios and then potentially move into AAA studios.

2. If you could project out into starting your career, what sounds the most appealing to you?

My interests sets allow me to be open to many things but Character is what I am most passionate about.  It would go well with my strong background in character illustration/ concept art. I want to better utilize my illustration skills to help enhance my 3D modeling abilities for characters and potentially other subject matters.

3. What are some of the top companies that you are interested in working for?

I have always been in interested in several studios like epic/square and blizzard and would like to apply to them later down the line. I do want to look more into midsized Indy companies to start and then with time move in to AAA but I will still apply to all if applications are open.
