Warren Dunlop’s Summary

Recently graduated from Interactive Multimedia and Design at Carleton University (class of '09).

Fresh from university I've decided to go on a two month backpacking trip to see some of the world. I am looking to break into a full time position in the video game or multimedia industry come September 1st, 2009. I want to work in a fun, fast-paced, and educated working environment to experience the development pipeline in the real working world.

The IMD course has had me designing, programming, and marketing different multimedia projects to my peers for 4 years. I was recently positioned at EMS SATCOM as a Marketing/Graphic Design Assistant. I helped market and position EMS SATCOM as the leader in Satellite Communications with imagery and verbiage within booth designs, podcast videos, flash ads, corporate documentation, quarterly newsletters, mini-sites, and an internal marketing database.

I enjoy social media (twitter: @warrendunlop), video games, hockey, guitar, digital music composition, snowboarding, and photography.

I am always on the look out for fresh, new, and exciting professional opportunities.
