Notgames Forum

Hello notgamers.  My name is Chris, and I am a 3D artist for a small studio in Los Angeles, though I longingly look forward to the day when I can do my own projects in the ways that I dream of doing them.  This is me -----> http://www.chrisweeks3d.com (http://www.chrisweeks3d.com)   None of the work on there is particularly poetic, but its purpose is to be relevant to the current commercial markets.

I am deeply interested in how games and interactive media can be more artistic and more meaningful.  I am inspired by the work of Tale of Tales and That Game Company, which is how I found my way here.  The philosophical and theoretical discussion I see on this forum is right up my alley.  I am just brimming with ideas, and I can't wait to inflict them all on you!  Thanks for having me here, and thanks for having this forum in the first place.

Hi, welcome! I'm an artist as well. My best advice would be to not longingly wait for the day to do your own project, do it now. I know it's hard when working for others, believe me, I know all too well. But it's the only way. You have to start.

Welcome! And I concur: start now! :)
