About me

I graduated in 2012 with a 1st class degree in 3D character animation and special effects from Staffordshire University. My first contracted 3D job was with a small animation company called Stars and Heroes, this was on a freelance basis. I was part of a small team and worked on jobs for clients such as Sony TV and Kestrel lager.

Staffordshire University Lecturer of 3D

After University I was invited to lecture 1st and 2nd years explaining my own workflow and modeling techniques. This was a excellent experience, I enjoyed it immensely.

I'm now looking for an opportunity to work in the gaming/film industry. Being well aware of the possibiltys of pre-rendered C.G.I, I'm also fascinated with what can be achieved in real time utilizing game engines such as UR4 and unity. I would relish the opportunity to explore and push the boundaries of this technology.

*Please note that I am a mature candidate of 38 years.

Thanks for viewing my profile!
