New Job: Double Negative!

Bit of a delay in blogging this one as I have been moving house (twice) and choosing between job offers but I finally settled down in London at Double Negative as a Tech Runner! I am essentially tech support for all the artists here at Dneg which means I am meeting and talking with a lot of very cool and talented people every day. There is also a matchmove in-house training program I am to soon enroll on which will be my first step to becoming a 3D Artist here. I can’t wait.

EGO’s Makeover

So I’ve decided to give my old major project model a bit of a makeover now I know a little more about Zbrush and anaotomy.. I still have a ways to go – there’s something not right with his legs and the general proportions of his lower half seems a little odd as they did in the original short. I shall keep progressing!

EGO ~

I had a blog dedicated to this but decided to move it over onto my main page to tidy things up: This is “EGO”, my Final Major at Bournemouth University where I was lead Modeller & Texture Artist.

3D Artist Magazine!

SO!… I’ve wound up in 3DArtist Magazine! One day I’ll hopefully be a featured artist but until then you can find me in 3DArtist’s Community section on page 16 & 17 (Issue 58).  To read why, be sure to check out my [BFX] post here:  https://rosshildick3d.wordpress.com/2013/08/15/bfx/

Needless to say, being in the same publication as Andrew Hickbottom was awesome – but here’s hoping that next time, we’ll both have an entire page each 😉

Freelance

Ok so I’ve been doing some freelance work to fill the gap between uni and a job while I’m on the hunt to bulk out the old CV. Here’s some CG box shots / Packaging for a company called 1-abc.net check them out here
