Summary

Hey, I'm Fred. I'm a generalist artist who worked 7 years in 3D on animation movies for Dreamworks before making the jump to 2D games. I love doing all aspects of art production from initial concepts, to final illustrations or animation! My favorite tools are Photoshop, Aseprite and TVpaint!

Experience

  • Senior 2d artist at Wickedfun

    As a 2D artist I did various tasks from concept or final art for characters, User interface, icons and backgrounds for the game Force of Elements.

  • Surfacer at PDI Dreamworks
    Redwood City, United States of America

    As a Surfacer Artist I was responsible to take untextured 3D models and bring them to life using provided concept arts and Art directors' input. Surfacing at Dreamworks consists of painting and creating all colors, textures, shaders, normal maps, fur or even grass on props, characters or entire enviromnents.
