Hi there,

I’m currently looking at the prospect of learning to be a 3D modeler or a Game Designer. However, before going ahead with this decision I was hoping to get some insight into the life of a 3D Modeler or Game Designer. What path did you take to become one? How did you land your first job? What’s a typical day like? Is there anything you’re currently doing which you never thought would be part of the job description (both positive and/or negative)?

I figured this would be a good forum to post in. If anyone has any links to interviews that would be great too!

Cheers
