Hello, my name is Carlos Mendieta. I am a Senior Animator with over 20 years of experience working on AAA titles in many different styles and genres (with 18 shipped games to date). I have extensive knowledge using Maya, 3DSMax, Motion Builder, Unreal 4, Unity, proprietary game engines and tools, re-targeting, cleaning up motion capture data and implementing it in game. As a senior animator, I also have extensive experience helping put together animation pipelines, troubleshooting and making those pipelines more efficient. I also have experience mentoring other animators while collaborating and working well with other departments to create and implement assets in-game under tight deadlines, while always remembering to have fun. Loving what I do is key in not only bringing out the best in me, but also in helping to create a positive and fulfilling environment in which to create with others.
