Engagement within the Industry
Career Plan
The gaming industry is an ever expanding field with technical artist being a particularly competitive job role within professional development companies. Because of this I have taken time to learn about the opportunities companies provide, and what I will need to accomplish if I hope to become a professional level technical artist, working for a reputable developer. Ideally I would preferably situate myself with a well off company based locally in the UK rather than overseas, however should I ever be met by any particularly enticing proposals it would be possible for me to reconsider it as a viable opportunity.
I also consider it to be highly likely that I may participate in freelance work for various companies whilst in the latter years during and soon after university, this will provide me with great opportunities to populate my portfolio with genuine work contracted for me to complete, thus adding to my industry engagement, networking opportunities and experience.
Additionally to this research I have actively been attending various industry events, where I have been able to speak to fellow aspiring developers and engaging in networking with industry professionals who are more than happy to provide advice.
