Professional info
My last position at Pocket comics was as associate Art Director, which handled project management and art directing on multiple scrolling comics, it involved coordinating between producers, artists, and writers. As well as hiring artists and writers, then creating pitch packages. Reading through and sourcing comic pitches and deciding which should go to the producer for potential greenlighting.
During my time at a Motion capture and stereoscopic 3D production studio, I handled file organization, building asset libraries, and working in a production pipeline. I've always enjoyed assisting and coordinating for other people’s projects.
