Hey there! My name is Steven and I am a 40 year old student at Full sail University. My current course of study will lead to a Masters of Fine Arts degree in “Media Design” I recently graduated with my BFA in "Video Game Production" on July 14th 2012 in that program my BFA I placed special emphasis on honing my “Texture and Lighting” skills as they would apply to a vehicle, object, or environment. Another area of special focus has been “Conceptual Characters” working with both digital and traditional forms of drawing and painting.For the last two years I have been working with Autodesk Maya 2010 and 2011 Entertainment Creation Suite as well as Adobe CS3, CS4, and CS5 Master Collections and have done advanced work with Photoshop, Flash, and Illustrator. A great deal of my advanced work was done on a Wacom Centiq DTZ-2100D.The game industry has been a part of my life for the last 5 years both as a core player as well as a beta tester for Everquest 2, Aion, Mass Effect, and Bio Shock, just to name a few. I do have the ability to travel and/or relocate for the right position and would also like to offer up my artistic and technical skills for freelance work while pursuing my degree.Specialties: Maya 2011 3D Modeling, Texture and Lighting, Digital art with Wacom Centiqu, Traditional Art, Photo Shop
