Dhar Mann Studios

I modeled and textured stylized characters, props, and environments as needed for production. The position relied heavily on teamwork & initiative.
Jan 2021-Feb 2021
Nexus Studios
Character Modeler
I had the pleasure of working on some of the characters for the animated short film "Drawn Closer." My tasks were to create clothing, hair, and accessories that both fit the concept art and brought out the features of the real person that the character was based on.

Full Sail University
Computer Animation Major
My focus at Full Sail was Character Modeling. In addition, I learned about the animation pipeline, hard-surface modeling and texturing, various 2D art skills, basic rigging, 3D animation, and more. I excelled while there, getting straight A's and several different awards (please see the section below).
