James De Silva Email and Phone Number
I have a First Class Honours Batchelor's Degree in Computer and Video Games. My areas of study were Game Design, 3D Art, Programming, Narrative Writing, Project Management and Legal. The course was very reflective of myself as I still today am very interested in all of these areas.I started my own video game development studio immediately after leaving university. We worked on a turn based strategy game which I created the 3D models for and supported programming for. I then went on to develop my own 3D platform. For that project, I made all 3D models, textures, animations alone. I also wrote code for the gameplay mechanics and I programmed the entire level editor alone in C# using the Unity game engine.On completion of the project, I joined a video game publisher where I have gained knowledge of every area of videogame publishing in some form. I have handled projects as a producer, I have handled community management and some marketing.My expertise lies in creative services. I'm known for my expedience and detailed work. In my role, I have been solely responsible for the creation of all physical materials for print and manufacturing. In that process, I fully cost and organise product creation. I also create all the advertising materials for these releases which includes video editing. I am also the single point of artwork brand compliance.My role in publishing also extends to IT management for the entire company. I handle all IT issues and have yet to find a problem I've been unable to solve! In this, I have taken responsibilty of systems and equipment management. I'm most well versed in Windows but I have some knowledge of Linux which has led to me setting up and managing VPN and file storage solutions for the office.I have also trained myself for PAT certification and I have a strong working knowledge of electronics which makes me reliable as a general electrical problem solver.
