Jonathan PeedinDeveloper BIOJonathan Peedin, Director of Art,
After receiving his BFA in Painting and Drawing at East Carolina University, Jonathan started doing graphics and illustration work at Fringe Multimedia, the same company that Steve Cotton (Red Storm Producer) worked for. After hearing about a job opportunity as an artist at Red Storm, he initially wasn't sure he was interested. "I was a bit taken aback because I had never actually considered a career in the games industry. Then I remembered all the late nights my mom and I stayed up until midnight competing with each other in Asteroids (I was nine), and all the money I blew (invested) on Street Fighter 2. I then decided that I might actually be a good fit in the industry." Jonathan landed the job as an entry level artist and was quickly promoted to the role of lead artist, serving in that position for both Rainbow Six and Rogue Spear. He is excited about his producer role so he can help problem solve and assist in keeping the schedules realistic and achievable.
