   Worked on a team of five artists, three of which I supervised.  I contributed
   concept art, models, the tortoise rig, many of the world’s textures, and
   assisted in getting assets into the game and working properly. To assist in
   this, I scripted saving of animation sets through the exporter, which wrote a
   text file the programmers could use.  In addition, I wrote a tool to frame
   animation sets in the timeline.

   Was the sole artist for the project and made all of the visual elements in
   the game, excluding the UI.  I also created a 30 second opening cinematic.
