Blog entry 01 - And so it begins



For the next 5 months I'll be over in Denmark, Copenhagen two Eucroma (Link: http://eucroma.dk/).
I'll be working as a 2D artist on a cross media platform with many other students from across Europe. Let's hope This'll be fun!


This first week was  spent getting to know everyone attending Eucroma both students and production board. 
I was tasked to present myself with a 60 second presentation informing fellow Eucroma participants about myself, my background, what I specialise in and what I hope to achieve at the end of this experience. I enjoyed introducing myself I felt I covered my background and my personality over to everyone.



 Once introductions had been done and dusted it was time for the team exercise (Oh joy).
I worked with a team of 3D specialists and 2D artists much like myself to develop a concept presented to my team; The task was to design a game concept involving Brunhilda riding a segway fending off zombies with her trusty spoon (I know what you're thinking. PURE GENIUS I KNOW!)

My team set out designing and c
reating Concept art depicting Brunhilda and he mighty spoon of justice. The aim of this exercise was to test our communication and problem solving skills.
At the end of the week the team successfully created many 3D assets and concept art including art for Brunhilda, the zombies and the environment. My team presented the work produced including a pipeline and working methods to the Eucroma Board.

Overall this week had been a success learning how to work to short deadlines and understanding a teams strenghts and weaknesses.
