Hi,
a bit about myself:
Sblackart presents my experience in the video game industry. I work for Warner Brothers Games/Avalanche as a Senior UI Artist. We finished Cars 3 in 2017, and are now working on more really cool games for Warner Bros. I work with some pretty amazing people. Love my job!
It was a sad day, when Disney shut down our Avalanche studio, July 11, 2016, to move towards using 3rd party developers to create their games for them instead of using internal studios.
​
I enjoyed being a Senior Artist at Disney Interactive Studios/Avalanche Software. For 10 years I worked in the user interface (UI) department creating menus, icons, meters, and any other UI elements that games like the Disney Infinity series, Toy Story 3, Cars 2 and many others need to help create that fun gameplay experience. I have been in the gaming industry as an artist for over 20 years. It has been a crazy ride. One I still enjoy, for the most part.
Prior to Disney, I worked for Microsoft making XBox/XBox360 games such as: Amped Snowboarding 1-3, the Links Golf series, and an awesome wake boarding game (working title- Mobius).
Family is where most of my personal time is focused. I love most sports. Basketball is probably my favorite. I love movies. And I of course enjoy "Gaming", usually with family. I love the outdoors, traveling, good music and warm weather. I hope you enjoy checking out some of my work.
