Amy Baldwyn
Where are you currently located?
Manchester, United Kingdom.
When did you first realise you wanted to work in creative media?
I had always known that I wanted to be a part of the creative industry since I was pretty young. It wasn't until I finally went to uni that I discovered my love for 3D art and all its possibilities. It's now my passion and dream and I look forward to showing what I can do.
When did you first realise you wanted to work in creative media?
I realised that I wanted to be in the entertainment industry when I was in my senior year of highschool. I was taking a class where we break down films shot by shot and understand the meaning behind each composition. I really liked that class and I wanted to explore further, so I applied for an animation program in my local community college. There I learned about concept art and visual development from my professor and realised that entertainment arts is what I really want to pursue.
What are your career goals?
I want to become a concept artist who specialises on environments and vehicles.
When did you first realise you wanted to work in creative media?
When i was sixteen it was time to make a choice about my career goals, I won an internship from the government. And i decided i had to study something related to videogames. Since i was good at drawing and i loved to play videogames. At the beginning my main interest was concept art and animation, but later on my year through college i discovered that 3D modeling was right for me.
What are your career goals?
To be a great 3D artist that is able to create stylized characters and environments optimized for videogames.
