SKILLS / SOFTWARE
As a CG artist I use Autodesk Maya/Mental Ray, Mudbox, Cyslice, UV Layout, Shave and a Haircut, Photoshop, as well as develop and create Departmental pipeline tools coded in MEL (working on python). I am very proficient in rigging, and blend shape facial modeling techniques, and I enjoy sharing with and learning from my team.
