THE STORY
Hello, I'm Khrystal. I am a 3D Environmental Artist. I enjoy modeling technical buildings, but I enjoy making everyday assets also. I would like to work in the Film Industry some day also becoming a Videographer or VFX Artist. Some of the programs that I use on a daily basis are 3ds Max, Premiere Pro, After Effects and Photoshop. I'm constantly using those programs in conjunction. I am also familiar with Unreal, I just don't use it quite as much as my other programs.
I am in the process of getting my Bachelor's Degree in Digital Animation and Game Design at Ferris State University. I owe every ounce of skill I have to my teachers. They have taught me an incredible amount and I would be nowhere without them. I am originally from a suburb of Chicago, but I am currently living in Michigan for educational purposes. My dream is to go to California once I graduate to get a job in my field, but with student loans and ties in Chicago, I'm not quite sure if that's going to happen. I could end up anywhere after graduation. I'll be happy where ever life takes me.
I have always loved computers, even when I was young. Just as I have always loved computers, I have loved videogames equally as much. It took me a couple of years to realize that I could combine those two passions into one career. Once I realized that making a career out of videogames was actually an option, I did everything that would help me reach success in that industry. I realize I might not be the best 3D Environmental or VFX Artist in America. That is why I work so hard everyday though. I know it takes practice and hard work to get to the level I want/need to get to. I am more than willing to give it my all.
