Javier Altman

3D animator and game developer. Or so I've been told.

Edinburgh, United Kingdom

Summary

Hi! I’m Javier, and I’m (mostly) an animator!

I've worked in 3D, 2D and Cut Out character animation pipelines for different media, specializing in the Video Game industry for current gen consoles, PC and mobile. At the moment, I'm working at Rockstar North, as Gameplay Animator!

My passion lies in all parts of the game development process, and I do whatever I can to contribute wherever I'm allowed. I've dabbled in systems, game design, UI/UX and have a working understanding of what it takes to go from idea to a shipped product - hopefully one that people will want to buy!

The most important skill that I have is my insatiable appetite to learn new things and rise up to new challenges, to get myself and the team I work with to complete our goals. This is a mantra to me, and I've had the pleasure to act on it time and time again.
