Announcement: New CG Cookie Crew Member - Kent Trammell!
Jan 30th 2013
Welcome Kent Trammell To The Team
CG Cookie is very excited to announce Kent Trammell will be joining the full-time CG Cookie crew this Friday! Kent was successfully tricked...I mean asked to join us and he accepted.Who is Kent?
Kent is a great artist from Dallas Texas, where it is warm and they have great BBQ sauce. He has a degree in computer animation from Full Sail University. His first industry position was a 3D generalist for MAKE, where he worked on several commercials and spec spots. Later he transitioned to Reel FX and worked on projects like the Ice Age Christmas special, Chuck E Cheese re-branding commercials, and Reel FX’s first upcoming feature film Turkeys’. You can check out more of his work at http://ktrammell.comWait...how many people work at CG Cookie now?
The official count of full-time artists has reached 4. This means there’s four of us staring at computers all day keeping the ovens going. This means we could now hold up a large table evening, or start up a polka band. But in reality it means you have 4 artists pushing the software to create solid education to enable you to make money or have fun with CG. ;)
Goals we are striving to achieve:
- Increase tutorial development and quality
- Offer additional Blender support and tool development
- Adding additional humor to the team's daily Skype chat
What does this mean for the CG Cookie and Blender Community?
With the humbling support of this community, CG Cookie is able to bring on Kent full time as a content creator for the site and studio. Kent will be working closely with Jonathan to push Blender productions, create tools, and produce some amazing training. Kent will also be assisting in day to day studio production and contributing to our upcoming unannounced passion project.
I just saw this and had to read through it. I didn't know Kent was from Dallas. I'm a Texan too (I wasn't born here but I got here as quick as I could). Crazy small world! that means that Kent has been cookin with da Cookie for 7 years now. That is quite an accomplishment.
