Susie Brown’s Summary

I have worked in the television and game industries as both an Art Director and Lead (respectively). I enjoy leading as much as I enjoy working in depth with my 3D and 2D motion graphic platforms. 3D is a fascinating medium, and as my blog (http://suspendedanimator.blogspot.com) will show you, I plan on understanding every fascet of this awesome virtual artform.
