At Paramount Animation, I worked as a 3D Visual Development Artist for about a year and a half on Josh Cooley's Transformers One. During my time there, I created 3D models for many of the film's environments and props under the guidance of Jason Scheier and Gerald de Jesus. These assets were used in the layout department and handed off to ILM as a starting point or 3D concept art for the final models. Designing in 3D allowed the art team to have greater control over the final look and feel of what appears on screen.
