Hello #PortfolioDay!
I'm James, a technical artist currently working in games in Naarm Melbourne🦘
I started my career in mocap and (early) virtprod before moving into games proper. I'm all about environments, proceduralism, unreal and houdini!

(also my portfolio is woefully out of date 😭)
How lucky to be alive at the same time as these exceptional lovely folk AND a marmalade IPA craft beer 😌
Gotta say, I’ve enjoyed our patron meetups around the world but the Aussi folks are undefeated. Smashing night out in Melbourne.

Look what they did to Notepad. Shut the fuck up. This is Notepad. You are not welcome here. Oh yeah "Let me use Copilot for Notepad". "I'm going to sign into my account for Notepad". What the fuck are you talking about. It's Notepad.

Creativity is like a houseplant, not an endless well. You need to seek out sunlight, water, and nutrients in art, shows, music, experiences, and more to tend to it. And just like plants it has its dormant and active periods and you may not seem improvement for some time.

imagine if someone promised human cloning then handed you an animatronic baby, and when you pointed out it was a robot covered in rubber, they told you the technology would improve, while someone from WIRED wrote an article about how they believed it was a baby

this is genAI

So about two years ago I pulled the rip cord and bailed on twitter after old mate bought it - and genuinely at the time the extent of my thoughts were "wow this guy is a giga asshat and I don't think that's the vibe for me" - I could have never imagined what has transpired since, and yet...
