Terry J. CoolidgeDeveloper BIO
After receiving a BFA in Illustration from the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, Terry started his professional career with Disney Interactive as a 3D Artist. After just 14 months, Terry stepped up to Disney's theme park design group, Walt Disney Imagineering, in their Show Designer department. As an Imagineer, Terry contributed CG artwork and animation to numerous theme park attraction concepts, most notably Epcot Center's exciting new thrill experience, "Mission: Space."
In the summer of 2000, Terry left Southern California for Spokane, Washington to join the creative team at
Cyan. The art of "Myst" and "Riven" had caught Terry's attention while a student at Art Center and again at Disney, so Terry embraced the opportunity to participate in the development of
Uru: Ages Beyond Myst. Terry continued to assist in Cyan's effort to create new ages and worked as a CG Lead on
Myst 5: End of Ages.
He left Cyan in June, 2005, after the art for Myst 5 was finished, and the next month he established his own operation, called
Wellspring Digital Studio.
