Garrett Pence is a Senior Art Director at Surreal Games. He possess expertise in texturing, environment art, video games, game development, ps3 and 28 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Garrett is an excellent artist and a pleasure to work with. Hes also pretty funny, its hard not to have a good laugh when your around him. Not only did he take on the responsibility of modeling and texturing many of the props in the game, he also model/textured/lit the entire environment in Skylanders Battlecast! He really puts love into his work, if you look at any of his art it clearly shows. He is more than just an artist, hes a team player that makes sure everyone is on board with whats going on, and is usually the go-to person for any artists or engineer needs. He is a hardworker that goes above and beyond, and is certainly a person you can trust and rely on under the most difficult circumstances. I would highly recommend Garrett as an indispensable asset to any team.", "I worked closely with Garrett for three years at Sony. We brought Garrett on, not only because he is an excellent environment artist, but also has a particularly deep knowledge of open world environments. I personally learned a ton from Garrett, as he was enthusiastic about always finding a better, faster way to make top quality art, and was always willing to share his findings with the rest of the team. As a person, he's a great guy. Zero ego, and super passionate and knowledgeable about his craft. He can do the big AAA, projects, but because of his experience and breadth of knowledge, I could see him doing amazing things in a smaller team as well.", and "Worked with Garrett on an unannounced PS4 project at Sony Santa Monica. He's a very talented environment artist who produced work that was admired by much of the team. Versatile skill set, very adaptable to whatever task arises. Knew a large amount about the tools and pipeline, very hard working. Would definitely like to work with him again, and recommend him to any studio looking to expand their high quality art team."
