Goals (Post FIEA)

My goal after FIEA is to work as a 3D environment artist for a mid-sized or AAA studio. My ideal companies to work for are Riot Games and Epic Games. I prefer to focus on stylized art. I'm also interested in working in film/cinematics either for game dev or animated films (i.e. Pixar, DreamWorks).

Current focus would be making more small environments and improving/diversifying my portfolio.

Some extra studies that I will need to learn are:

- Materials and texture practice (understanding base materials and how that will affect lighting/rendering)

- Learning tools/techniques in software (ZBrush shortcuts, Substance, Designer, etc. to help speed up my workflow)
