I am looking to further my education and abilities through getting a job in the animation, modeling, level design, and graphic design career field.  I like to challenge myself in the projects that I choose to tackle.  Much of the time, when I come to a hurdle in my work, I am required to troubleshoot, and learn, and fix the problem on my own.  This allows me to thoroughly learn the program I am using and prepares me for working in a company setting, where I will have to learn new things, and take on projects on my own.  I am also a perfectionist when it comes to projects and am detail-oriented.  I am not happy with results unless they are perfect.

I recently graduated from Kent State University in December of 2009 with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Animation.  I learned to work with programs here, such as 3D Studio Max, Unreal Tournament Editor, Adobe products (such as flash and photoshop), and various AutoDesk and AutoCAD programs.  I love to model in 3D and design various scenes.  I also have a passion for creating art, whether drawing, or painting, or using my computer skills in PhotoShop.  I have a strong artistic background, in which I have been immersed since grade school.

Please take a look at my portfolio and resume.  Feel free to contact me at pcrail11@gmail.com.

Thank you,

Patrick Crail
