Personal Statement:
I am a skilled 3D generalist with 6 months industry experience. My main strength lies in hard surface modelling and texturing, though I have also studied animation, lighting and rigging.
My time at Rare has been invaluable as it exposed me to industry processes that were not covered at university. My time spent with project management software such a Product Studio and in-house asset management software will help me in future industry roles.

During my final year at university I was part of a small group that created a 3D game using the Unreal engine. I took the roles of 3D Artist, 2D Artist, Rigger, Animator and Level Designer. I have also conducted in-depth research into character animation for my dissertation piece and was the Project Manager of a group creating a trailer for a 3D remake of Back to the Future III.
At the end of my University course I took part in a competition to develop a 3D game in 5 days. Our group was awarded the prizes Most Technically Advanced and Most Overly Ambitious.
