Danny is one of the best Art Director's I've worked with, and an extremely supportive and emotionally skilled team lead. He's worth every penny to have on board your team!

If you're wondering whether joining the game workers union could ever make a difference, the execs at Rockstar certainly think so.

Rockstar union workers have set up a solidarity fund to help them survive and fight after 30 of them were fired in an attempt to destroy the union. Help them fight back! If you can, any little bit you can donate will massively help their efforts. actionnetwork.org/fundraising/...

I've reposted many posts made by folks who were recently laid off from Heart Machine, but here is a thread that highlights them all. I am also including folks who were previously laid off & are still looking for work. I will be linking their Bsky posts, as well as LinkedIn. Please, share this. 🖤

Hey friends - my time at Heart Machine is ending after nearly 6 years. It’s difficult to say goodbye to a studio that has seen so much growth in myself and others. If you know of any studios hiring for audio lead or senior roles, please send them my way. DMs are open! #AudioJobs #OpenToWork

Learned that I am being laid off from Heart Machine, and will be leaving the studio later this month. Do you need a contractor? I've got a track record of leading scope-friendly script revisions late in dev. I have also done a lot of consulting on new IPs and pitches/demos. Feel free to DM me!

It's that time again, folks. I have been told I will be let go from Heart Machine next week. The people there have been amazing friends and coworkers and anyone else who has been affected deserves all the love and support. I will be updating my portfolio soon; any Env Art leads would be appreciated

hmmmm yeah utilizing stock assets and arranging them in blender with simple transforms could work! in terms of other programs, I'd have to consider it sine I mostly use modeling and other content tools like substance/zbrush and their learning curve is way higher

Something that helped me keep sane when I had to look for work was having a spreadsheet where I could keep every detail of job applications in one place. I updated it in 2024 & made a template, anyone can use it by clicking File > Make a Copy. 🔹 tinyurl.com/8vc5nwmn

A screenshot of a looking-for-work spreadsheet I made. Some info on there are date applied, status, company applied to, location, type, link, position, project, etc.

Did you know if you organize your favorite video game studio you can put in your contract the rule that makes sure if you worked on a game you get credited even if you leave before shipping???
