My name is Brett Deacon, I am currently a student at Ferris State University attending their DAGD program and I have been since 2012. Currently, I am going to school to become a 3D Graphics Designer. On my spare time I play video games quite frequently. There isn't a day that goes by in which there is something video game related that goes through my mind. I have had an interest in Multimedia since high school I took many classes pertaining to that in high school and taught myself Photoshop during that time as well. This is one of the main reasons why I chose to go to Ferris State, was because they had a program that was directly aimed at learning how to make video games, which has been something I wanted to do my entire life.
Other than playing video games all the time. Some other things that I enjoy is new technology and cars. Ever since I was a little kid, I loved vehicles, I remember on long road trips I would watch all the cars going down the highway and try to name every single car. Since then, I have always kept myself updated on the latest vehicles. This has been something that has influenced what I do at Ferris State University. I am also a very big techie geek and enjoy reading up on what is the latest tech that is out on the market, and what is being researched. With this two interests in mind, I always like to design things that have more of a mechanical aspect to it. I have always found mechanics to be quite fun to do and has been an interest of mine since I was in high school.
After I graduate and get my degree, I would like to first start out by doing freelancing jobs do start building up more experience and get a better understanding of the 3D industry. I recently did a month long internship at S2 Games in Kalamazoo, MI and have learned a lot about what it takes to implement new assets into already running games, and what it also how a company functions. As I said earlier I love vehicles, so that will be on of the first places that I will begin to look for a job after I feel that I am ready to dive into the 3D industry more.
