Summary
Hello, my name is Corey and I am currently living in Colorado Springs, CO. I have been passionate about art and video games my entire life and I had always struggled to find something I was good at yet could stay passionate about for an extended period, in terms of my own financial wellbeing. A couple of years ago now, I had an epiphany and realized that I should be putting my skills and passions together to realize a life goal! So, I started working on my BA in Video Game Art out of Full Sail U, graduated and then I finished my MA in game development through the Academy of Art U.
I am primarily a 3D environment artist but can do many other things. I would ideally be looking for a smaller team to work with rather than a bigger one because I like to contribute to more of the overall projects I contribute to rather than smaller, more specialized aspects in a greater pipeline. I tend to thrive more on being self motivated and enjoy leadership roles more than being on teams but can do both when required to. A few games that have inspired me to chase my dreams have been, Anarchy Online, Path of Exiles, Ark Survival evolved, Pokemon, and last but not least, The last of us remastered.
My skills include Environment and prop specific Modeling and texturing. UVing,The PBR material pipeline, Unreal engine scene building, material setup and high resolution rendering. I can also do light prop Animation and Scene lighting. I use Maya, Zbrush, Photoshop, and the Substance suite mainly for my art production. My engine of choice is Unreal.
