      Nov 2016 - Feb 2023
      3D Art Lecturer

      Teaching students the standards required for the production of 3D Art for professional industries such as Film. Games and Marketing with units such as 3D Modelling, Sculpting, Rendering, Animation, Rigging and Level Design. Such students require an industry-standard level of work which increases their chances of getting employed in a highly competitive industry. I also take charge, along with my colleagues, in making sure that the students meet the standard imposed from live-briefs produced in tandem with local game development companies. I also mentor those wishing to conduct a thesis based on 3D game art. Show less
