Chris Whitaker is a Chief Solutions Officer and Art Manager at Pie Trap Studios at Pie Trap Studios. He possess expertise in texturing, 3d modeling, 3d studio max, video games, maya and 24 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Chris is one of the most impressively balanced CG artists around - a great mix of quality and technical prowess. Even before any professional experience, his portfolio was full of great looking, game ready assets. He understands the pipelines and limitations to making games and makes the most of those. In fact, Chris was always one to find ways to make tedious pipeline tasks move exponentially faster and easier through a number of amazing scripts for Photoshop and 3DS Max...that we still use today. Cryptic literally benefitted across the entire company from the work he did and I wouldn't hesitate to work with him again." and "Chris is a talented character artist who delivered consistently high-quality work. In addition, he showed great initiative and technical aptitude by developing numerous tools and scripts to improve our pipeline and workflow. I was always able to rely on his strong modeling, texturing and weighting skills, sound judgment in asset implementation, and understanding of even the most technical aspects of our pipeline. In addition, Chris had a positive, proactive attitude. He responded well to feedback, and took time to teach other character artists aspects of the pipeline which they didn't understand. Finally, he went above and beyond to create tools and scripts that improved our workflow in many ways. Among them were tools in 3DSMax to speed modeling and skinning workflow, a tool to automatically catalog and organize backups of geometry upon export, an app to easily view and define properties on character art in game, and more. These achievements have since benefited artists throughout the company. I would work with Chris again in an instant, and would heartily recommend him to any team."
