Anthony Garcellano

Environment Artist

Seattle, WA, United States of America

Summary

10+ years working in 3D, game art and game development.

I started out as a Playtester at Midway Games in 2008, and then interned at an agency on a flash game, before graduating with a Bachelors degree in Media Arts, 3D Animation in 2009. After graduation, I worked at Sony San Diego, first on a PSP title, then on console/PSP titles in QA. Around this time, I was transitioning from animation to environment art. I started doing freelance work on iPhone games on the side, and joined Legend 3D in compositing, converting movies to stereoscopic 3D.

I left Legend 3D in early 2014, to work on my portfolio and back in games, and later that year, joined Vertex Solutions as a Game Artist II (3D Artist II), in their Immersive Learning Department. After that, I did more freelance 3D work, this time for a PC/PS4 title and a VR title, before joining Hardsuit Labs as an Environment Artist.

I continued doing freelance work, just to experience working on games in different platforms, working on an AR game, for the iPhone/Android, then a JRPG-inspired game, currently in-development for PC/Consoles, and recently a 3D browser-based game.

My current focus now is to work at a AAA studio as an Environment Artist or any role similar.
