Former Broccoli USA production assistant Krystal came by.
If you’ve read Broccoli Books & Synch-Point production blogs from several years back, Krystal was our production assistant for a long time while she studied 3D animation/graphics.
After she graduated, she’s been working on various projects… and she got to work on the graphics for the Harry Potter ride that’s going to open two years from now. She said she worked on the graphics for half the castle (she said a name, but I don’t read Harry Potter so I don’t recall).
How awesome is that? (Even though I don’t know what castle it is… *laugh*)
She’s currently working at an online game company that’s making a new game called TwinSkies. She said she’s mainly working on clothing & hair pieces that are interchangeable in the game.
And former Broccoli Books editor Samantha is also working there!
Apparently she started out as a writer, but they liked her art & she’s the main character designer there.
We’ve had a lot of aspiring artists work for us as part-time staff (like in retail), and I always didn’t know how to help them w/ their career paths. The only thing I could suggest was in animation, so it was good to know another potential career for those who like to draw.
Anyhoo, go check out the site.
