Veteran tech artist and tech-art leader with 30 years experience in animation and 25 in the games industry. My shipped titles include Mech Commander, Half Life, Team Fortress Classic, Counter-Strike, SOCOM 3, and Halo 3, and most the recently State of Decay series. I was the art editor at Game Developer magazine for 10 years, where I did the regular "Pixel Pusher" art column. I'm a regular speaker at game development events in the US, Europe and Japan. I’m also the founder of the Technical Art Forum, the largest professional association for tech artists.At Unity my team contributes to the design and refinement of the world's most-used game engine. We cover the entire spectrum of content from animation to graphics to world creation while also creating interactive demos for new features and workflows. I've been lucky enough to work across all of the major tech art disciplines and there's nothing I love more than finding new ways to outsmart all the obstacles which stand between artists and their self-expression.
