I was recently laid off from ILM, one of the greatest VFX companies in the world and I absolutely loved working there! I was a VAD 3D Artist, or one that works in the Virtual Art Department. I created the content that goes on the volume wall for same day shooting backgrounds for film and television such as shows like Obi-Wan Kenobi or The Mandalorian. It was such an incredible experience and I'm so glad that I had the opportunity to work for them.

I worked as a Senior Environment Artist for a VAD (Virtual Art Department). I created/modified/edited environments and props for pre-production/visualization in movies and television. I worked in Maya and Unreal all day, every day as well as Zbrush, Substance and Photoshop.

Redmond, Washington, Us

I reviewed new and past vehicles for the Forza Motorsport franchise. I tested them in game, made changes/edits to geo and textures and worked to ensure they met the high quality standards of the game. I was also involved in the large material/shader upgrade for the future release.

Orlando, Florida, Us

I helped design/create everything within a themed ride attraction from ride, props, characters, show set, retail, queue, bathrooms, etc. I have been working within Maya and Unreal daily for the past year and a half creating visualizations of the world environment with PBR textures, lighting, animation, etc.

I was hired to produce renders of their hi-end toilet partitions for each client/quote, make instructional installation videos and layouts. I spend the majority of my time creating shop drawings for the pieces that are actually made. Jobs range from a couple of parts, all the way to 150 stalls/80+ page document. I’ve worked on almost 200 drawings since I started there. Precision is required and the parts have to be made to follow National and Local ADA Codes. Our clients have included Boeing, Expedia, Hard Rock Cafe, Houston Rockets, Olive Garden, Applebees, Marriott, Hyatt, Wrigley Field, YMCA and more.

I helped create, tune, modify and port stadiums for the extensive two year transition developing the game for a first time release in the Frostbite Engine. I worked with large 3D models from the FARO scanner as a base for modeling in game assets. I made whitebox geo for outsourcing, modeled full stadium exteriors, interiors, runout tunnels and props, created/modified PBR textures and did stadium light baking. My skills were also used to help make various assets for Madden ‘17 and I modeled and textured nine stadiums for Madden Mobile.

I worked as a 3D Artist for about four months between contracts at EA. I was mostly George Walker's rapid prototyping guy A lot of the projects were only a day or two and consisted of various things he was doing for pitches. The larger projects I helped concept were the G.I. Joe vs. Cobra experience and an Asian themed attraction with the Golden Temple set/waiting line.

I was part of a small art team at Evolution Ventures that consisted mostly of other previous EA contractors. Our team worked well together since we already knew each other and were used to tight production schedules. We created VR experiences for properties around the globe. They were mostly high end penthouses, resorts, hotels, housing complexes, etc. The purpose was for our clients to have the ability to show their customers real estate developments that had yet to be built or were in the process of being remodeled. They could walk through the bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, out onto the balcony, etc. and view the world as if they had purchased it. Our goal was to provide an immersive, lifelike experience that wowed and impressed.

For my first contract at EA Tiburon (Orlando), I worked on Madden 25. I was hired on as a character artist, even though I had no previous character experience. I came so highly recommended by my contacts at EA SLC that they were willing to give me a try since they liked my get it done attitude and willingness to learn. I worked on player degradation, sideline characters, coaches, owners and four background characters that were cut because of time constraints. After working extensively on a broken crowd part system, the plug was pulled and in the final month and a half of production I was the only artist given the task of recreating the crowd will full mesh characters. It was the first time Madden had used a 3D crowd. It was previously done with cards that scrolled through image sequences.

Imagine Learning is a company creating and providing award-winning educational software to more than 100,000 students in schools across the United States and around the world. I helped develop, direct, film and edit videos for language instruction and hundreds of video clips for testing.

This is where it all began as Curt Liddle, a long-time friend and colleague provided me with a great opportunity to start learning 3D and create levels for Outlaw Golf 2.
