Wednesday, February 19, 14

Who am I? Well, let me tell you a little about myself

Coming from a large family

Wednesday, February 19, 14 Hook: Coming from a family of 15 it was hard to (ind my niche. My specialty. Most of my siblings were great at something; playing music, running, sports, carpentry, ect.

Unhealthy child

Wednesday, February 19, 14Root: I was the only one who was sickly as a kid so I had to spend most of my time indoors with my mother.

Wednesday, February 19, 14. But I didn’t let that stop me from (inding something that made me different from all my siblings.When you’re born to a large family and everyone is good at something, everyone but you, it is really easy to get lost in the crowd





I was lost in the crowd

Wednesday, February 19, 14The urge to stand out from the rest of my siblings, to be recognized and remembered is what drives me. I still carry that urge and that (ight with me today.

Wednesday, February 19, 14. Mantra: My name is Joshua Currington and I am a hard working, diligent and an adaptive 3D artist.



Hard workhttp://www.(lickr.com/photos/9307441@N05/3395079158/

Wednesday, February 19, 14 I come with a set of skills that a lot of other individuals don’t. My desire and my drive to succeed is one of the things that separates me from others. I love what I do. I owe my tenacity and my work ethic to one person. My mother.



My mother

My mother is a hardworking and determined individual. She taught me to never give up and that any job worth doing was worth doing right. My name means ‘Soul of my mother’. I strive everyday to live up to that. To be as hardworking and determined as she is.



Diligent



Many people start out strong but as time goes on they get tired and want to give up. I have learned, that you can’t do that. Throughout my years in the workforce I’ve seen others give up and not care about the work I do or how the perform. I believe that if you are on time you are late, and if you are early you are on time. I have always shown up early for meetings, work and school and have never once been late. I have received recommendations from former employers for my tenacity and diligence when it comes to my work ethic



Never give up


Wednesday, February 19, 14Life has taught me to never give up. The race isn’t won be the weary or the faint of heart. Just because things get hard in your life and it looks like there is no way out, I’ve learned to keep striving for my goals and dreams. Being diligent in my studies, my work and the pursuit of my dream is part of who I am.




Adaptive

Wednesday, February 19, 14Skill Set and Work Experience: One of my strongest traits is my ability to adapt and to learn new things quickly. When I was thrown into the work force I quickly learned how things ran in the system. Training usually took 3 weeks but within 3 days I was able to do all the chores and responsibilities of my more seasoned co-‐workers.

Wednesday, February 19, 14When I started learning about 3D arts at school I quickly picked that up as well. Multiple times my professors commended me for being able to (inish a months worth of work in a week.









Work that I’ve done

Wednesday, February 19, 14Work Samples: The (irst two animations were done in my very (irst 3D class. I had never touched a 3D software package before. We were given a month to storyboard, model, rig, animate, light and render everything in the scene. I was able to do that and then to complete another animation with the same specs, yet of a better quality. I received perfect marks in the class.

Joshua Currington, My Collection, 2013

Wednesday, February 19, 14These models you see here were from the modeling class that I had next. We were tasked with creating props for two sets, laying out UV’s for a third set and (inally we were required to model an entire set. I completed the (irst 3 assignments in the (irst week and a half and took my time on the (inal assignment. I also received perfect marks in this class and an award form the Course Director for Excellence and helping the rest of my classmates with all of their props and set as well.



This here was a prop model that I did for another class. This was done in another new 3D package that we were given in school.

Animation is my passion and has been since I was 8 years old. I love being able to take inanimate objects and give them life. I feel that animation is the life blood of the CGI industry. Granted many other disciplines are important, animation is the key to it all. Without life like animation, we wouldn’t be able to enjoy many of the films that we enjoy today.




Lead AnimatorWednesday, February 19, 14Success De:ined: I started my journey with the hope of one day starting my own animation studio. That is where I want to end up once I retire from the industry. But that won’t be for many years. Right now, my dream is to be an animator for DreamWorks Animation SKG. They’ve produced some of the best works in CGI (ilms. Films that I love and to this day, still watch. Working with them is what I will do. There is no question about that.
