Video games have always been a strong passion of mine which is why I chose this career track. As a child I never understood how games worked, but just knew that they were fun to play. Going through college, I learned that game programming requires a ton of problem-solving skills before attaining the desired result. The harder the problem is, the more rewarding the result is to see in the end.
Another passion of mine is motion capture animation. I always thought it was cool to see people act out motions to give inanimate characters. You can see that the likeness of the real person is directly transferred the the character model. I always though the whole process was awesome and when I finally got a chance to work with the equipment and software, I was extremely ecstatic. It was one of the funnest and challenging projects that I had ever worked on.
