Hello.
I'm Mark Fry, a Canadian citizen living in the United Kingdom
with seven years experience as a London-based level designer
in the video games industry.
This
web site is a showcase of my past work in real-time 3D video
games and a look ahead at my other passions: animation, film,
and vfx. I am currently on a learning sabbatical with hopes
of gaining employment in London's thriving VFX industry.
It's
still early days but I've recently set up a blog
for more text-laden, non-graphical updates; things that just
wouldn't fit into Twitter's 140 character limit.

This
image is a Maya Software render created during the first part of
the Escape
Studios online training course entitled "Advanced
Shading with Maya & Mental Ray". Escape Studios
provides the geometry & textures and they work you through creating
the shading networks for all the various materials. I'm quite enjoying
working in the Hypershade and learning more about the utilitiy nodes,
projections, and layered shaders.

My
head sculpted in Maya polygons to learn topology & edge flow
techniques. Some details like the nostrils, lips, and ears could
definately use more work.

After
working through some training tutorials for using high dynamic range
images with Maya lighting and mental ray rendering techniques I
needed to take an afternoon to put things into practice beyond the
lessons.

Maya
ambient occlusion test render using mental ray
This
is my concept model of the Slipgate teleporter used in the Enemy
Territory: Quake Wars video game. My idea was to base
the design of the teleporter on the Quake symbol as a nod to the
legacy of the Quake series. The model was later used by the artists
as a guide for the final in-game asset.
