“I’m now an Associate Technical Animator at Oxide Games in Baltimore, where I just completed a co-op semester as part of my masters work at the Carnegie Mellon. At Oxide, we are working on an unannounced AAA game. My job entails doing research about different kinds of character setups, building rigs and animation tools and making sure everything on the character side of things works inside Oxide’s proprietary game engine. Apart from work, I’m very slowly learning how to sculpt digitally and transitioning from the more cartoony characters that I’ve set up in the past to more realistic ones.”
