Again Hey All! My name is Geoff and I am a new Character artist over at Portalarium and wanted to stop by and say hello! I have a bio on the website somewhere, but I'll give you the abridged version. I have been in the industry for over 13 years. I have worked on lots of games over the years but lately I worked on several Guitar Heros as an Artist, Art lead and Art Director. I have worked in pretty much all of the fields surrounding 3d as well. From Architecural to Movies and Tv . I even taught college for 7 years on game creation. And just in case you think I am a shut in living in moms basement, I am not the only one in family working on this stuff. My beautiful wife is a UI artist for a game company too (working on a game that has a dude running around in really really dark underoos.)! My oldest son also is dabling in the industry. Yup we are major gamers. Ok so thats me, I open the forum up for questions. Just step up to the mic...Dont be shy........ ....... Hmm ok no questions, well if any come up let me know ! I will try to get permission to show you the Avatar model I have been working on... Also I will have my eyes on the forum and posting every Friday. Later, Geoff PS. I had an interesting revelation when I started over here at Portalarium, but I will challenge you to find out what it is. (hint: Its in my bio)
You can't be giving hints as to your revelation, people are going to pry into your personal business...
Welcome aboard, Geoff! I was affected by the U7 opening as well. When the Guardian popped out of the screen and spoke "Avatar" I got chills. I still do. So what did you work on over at ILM?
