[email protected] Portfolio: www.axisphere.art -3D Artist- Profile As a highly motivated and self-taught CG artist I have always pushed the industries current tools to produce real-time art work of the upmost quality. Being interested in game engines, I have always enjoyed working with cutting edge technology to push the envelope of real- time graphics. I continue to provide creative input into producing some of the industry's best tools and rendering technology to produce work of excellent merit. As a keen learner and avid tech fanatic I always seek and pursue innovation. Experience Virtual Arts Limited 2017 - Present - Principal Artist/Tech Art I joined a new startup in Cambridge for a fresh challenge in Mobile VR/AR. My role at Virtual Arts Limited is creating shader networks, Unity tech art, content creation, inputting into creating our own engine/tool pipeline and to schedule artwork. Sony Interactive Entertainment 2004-2017 - Principal Artist I joined SCEE/SIE as a standard level artist and progressed to principal level. My 13-year period saw a lot of projects with some very challenging situations creating games for brand new platforms/technology, the toughest challenge being to create a Virtual Reality title (RIGS) which would be fast paced without creating nausea and achieve a solid 60 FPS throughout the experience. In my career at Sony I’ve inputted into developing our internal engines and tools, create 2D/3D graphics for our products, produce basic concept art to focus prototypes for future projects, write technical documentation and tutorials to educate the art team, worked closely with marketing to provide resources to advertise and create online social media presence, entertained VIP visitors, and educated myself in legal issues regarding design and copyright issues.
