Artist Roadmap

    If you could project out past graduation, what is your overall career goal? 

  • My goal past graduation is to work in the video game industry as a 3D Hard Surface/Weapon Modeler. I prefer to work in a AAA studio with name recognition. Creating assets for big blockbuster franchises is my goal. I am not opposed to working for AA, indie, small studios, or military simulations as long as I get to do 3D art or be an art director, I am fine with any size team. Besides the video game sector, I am interested in the Film/Animation industry. My BFA is in animation and screenwriting, I would love to explore film-related opportunities as a 3D modeler or art director/lead. 
     

 If you could project out into starting your career, what sounds the most appealing to you? 

 

  • If I could get my ideal start, I would choose to start as a 3D Prop Modeler. Even though I am confident in my skills, jumping straight into Hard Surface/Weapons seems intimidating. Starting in an AAA studio would be ideal, but I am open to any size video game, simulation, or film/TV studio. I just want a job making 3D assets. 

     

    I am also interested in Lighting, Producer, and Art Managing/Lead jobs.
     

What are some of the top companies that you are interested in working for? 

  • The company I am most interested in is NaughtyDog. The reason why I choose to do 3D Art as my career is because of NaughtyDog’s games. I want to eventually get back to Chicago, and companies like IronGalaxy, which are just a couple blocks away from DePaul University, where I did my undergraduate, would be my dream location. Another company I would absolutely lose my mind if I got to work there, is Bungie. Since 2014 I have been playing the Destiny franchise, I grew up getting loot and slaying raid bosses, it would be a dream to work for Bungie.
