Anneka Dinham
Level/Environment Artist | World Builder & Storyteller
West Midlands, United Kingdom

My name is Anneka Dinham and I'm an MA Game Art graduate from Escape Studios [predicted Distinction], and a First-Class Honours graduate in Creative Studies with International Experience. Across both courses, I have experience in visual storytelling, game, level and narrative design. I have a strong passion for worldbuilding, from writing books to making games, and am enthusiastic about developing a career as a Level and/or Environment Artist. I would love to bring my story, experiences and personality to the games industry, and would eagerly accept any opportunities to develop my skills in level design and 3D game art. I have a strong willingness to learn and I value new experiences where I can connect with other people from different walks of life.

I am actively seeking and would value partaking in work experience, traineeships or internships that would allow me to grow and develop my 3D level/environment art and worldbuilding skills. I can work independently but also thrive as part of a team, devoting myself fully to all tasks with a creative and determined nature. I value exploring new possibilities within gaming, challenging conventions and stepping outside of my comfort zone, and aspire to be a part of the innovative culture found in the games industry.
