Biography edit · view history

After three years at Sup Info Com (France), I joined Virtual Studio in Paris where I worked on "Ar'kritz". Following a mandatory 10 months of french army fun, I joined Darkworks to work on "Les Visiteurs". Decided to move abroad and joined Argonaut Games in North London where I worked for seven years from a 3D artist position, ending as an Art Manager. There I had the chance to work on a bunch of titles with some of the most exciting developpers I had yet to know. Titles were "Kannan" which got kanned :(, "Red Dog", a shoot them up on the fantastic Dreamcast, "Kleaners" which morphed into SWAT GST for the Xbox and PS2, and the early conception of "Roll Call" (aka Urban Chaos - Eidos) until the company sadly folded. In March 2005, I moved to the frozen plains of Canada to join BioWare Corp as a lead tech artist, and more recently as an art director.
