action plan

My main aim is to break in to the games industry and become a 3d modeller and then later on in life move into the movie industry CGI animator/3D modeller.

Concept/2d Artist (Environmental and products)

To achieve this i might have to do some freelance work to get some experience behind me. And also develop my skills in my spare time. Find different ways to get spotted e.g. Youtube.

Experienced Character Artist

For this job i will have to use all my contacts in the industry to get an interview and then work my way from the bottom to the top. For this job i shouldn’t have to go to higher education. I will also have to develop my 3D modelling skills to get noticed.


For this job i might have to work for a smaller company first to gain experience and build up my CV. Also in my spare time i will have to learn more skills on 3d modelling software’s such as creating background and things like that.
