Summary

I am character and background designer, concept art generalist. I left my job as a Senior Production Artist for RT Direct dev projects at Rooster Teeth Animation in September 2021 to focus on self development and burnout recovery. The studio work I did involved quickly designing multiple character iterations based off client needs and feedback, along with helping direct other artists across multiple projects. I also helped paint backgrounds following a predefined layout, drew turnarounds, and helped guide artists through iteration-feedback process.

Primary experience with Photoshop, basic experience with Blender 3.0. Collaborating with other team members and ensuring voices and notes are heard has been a huge part of keeping the pipes I work on creative and moving forward!

Experience

  • Production Artist - Lead Production Artist - Senior Production Artist (2D Dev) at Rooster Teeth Productions, LLC
    Austin, United States of America
    April 2015 - September 2021

    Worked closely with multiple clients, directors, and producers to discuss and learn what they have in mind, then utilize Photoshop to draft production artwork from concept to finish within a time constraint. Turnaround can vary depending on complexity of task, from several done within a day or two (props, character designs, simple backgrounds), up to a week (backgrounds for larger scenes).

    Main disciplines include designing characters + turnarounds, backgrounds, and props. This includes communicating regularly with other members of the team - animators, directors, producers, other artists - to gather and apply constructive feedback, and ensure the design and file layout will work most efficiently for anyone who needs to access it.
