A bit about me...
My name is Simon Smalley, a 3D Artist/Animator based in the Midlands, UK. I have been making 3D art since I was introduced to Lightwave 3D back in the year 2000. After leaving university with a 1st Class BA(hons)Animation in 2003, I went on to set up Small Animations which has been trading ever since.
During the past 8 years my commercial experience has given me the opportunity to work in many different creative industries; from video games to TV and from corporate videos to stereo-scopic film. This experience has enabled me to develop skills in most areas of animation production.
My key skills include character and environment modeling & texturing for games and render, plus strong 2d/3d graphic design for print and video compositing skills.
I am currently working as Lead Artist for Fuzzy-Frog Games, a Midlands based games studio, where I have been involved with a number of well known 2d and 3d titles.
Below is my experience to date:
- Fuzzy-Frog Games, Lead artist.
- Mayhem Games, Senior character artist.
- Crush Digital Media, 3D Concept artist (Games)
-Red Star Studio, 3D Artist/Animator
- Circle Studio, 2D/3D Graphic Artist/Animator
- Freelance 3D Artist/Animator - Small Animations
