What up My name is Chelsea…and I’m 20…and yes, a girl. LOL I just so happened to stumble into this place…and I'm glad I did. I was searching for a Christian-based 3D studio...I'm an aspiring 3D modeler. Last year I graduated from college (Nov. 03) with a degree in Computer Animation…currently I’m a Computer Operations and Networking Tech working as a contractor on a naval air station in Pensacola, Florida. I’m also in college again…working my way up to a bachelor’s degree in Computer Animation. I really think that visual arts can be a powerful way to move people to Christ. God has given us so many gifts, talents, opportunities, etc. to use...so lets use them for the purposes God made us for. Entertainment is such a booming industry…we can flip it around and use it as a way to minister to others. Anyways I don’t want to type too much. I just wanted to introduce myself and make friends - chels oh, by the way…my aim s/n is cheybea ------------------ |

Hey chelsea. I'll be your friend.... (I say that when somebody says they want to make friends here... it's this crazy... thing of mine. forgive my insanity.) here's a free 3d engine. and if your interested in helping with a christian game, talk to D-SIPL here about Last Disciple. D-SIPL, Brandon and I are working on it.. so... yeah.. I'll shut up now. ------------------ |
cheybea Member Posts: 40 From: Registered: 10-03-2004 |
Hi ArchAngel...I'll gladly be your friend. LOL I really don't know much about games or game development...I know, I know...tsk,tsk..but I'm willing to learn. But I mainly just make characters and such..and I'm still learning in that area too. ------------------ |
ArchAngel Member Posts: 3450 From: SV, CA, USA Registered: 01-29-2002 |
WOOHOOO! oh, sry. we're all learning when it comes to game dev. nobody is never learning. ------------------ |

Hey welcome to the forums!! Our game isn't to the point of needing artist right now but I know Last Disciple is looking for people. Enjoy your stay at CCN! |
Conan Member Posts: 69 From: the world Registered: 06-27-2004 |
Yo, Chelsea, I'll soon need a 3d modeler, though not right now. If you become desperate for work, i might hear you, though... Good luck on your stuff! |
Max Member Posts: 523 From: IA Registered: 09-19-2004 |
Can I be your friend too? YAY! Heardtheword already said we don't need anybody yet, but we'll keep ya in mind for the future. D-SIPL has something right now. God Bless, Max ------------------ |
cheybea Member Posts: 40 From: Registered: 10-03-2004 |
max - yup you can be my friend too Right now I'm mostly working on my demo reel...and I'm trying to come up with ideas for a cool character or environment to model...I kinda have "writers (or 3D modelers) block"... ------------------ |
Max Member Posts: 523 From: IA Registered: 09-19-2004 |
I have been known to help with character designs, I'm not saying I'm an expert, but I'm always willing to help. Email me at Uncle_Max01@msn.com if I can help you in any way. God Bless, Max ------------------ |
Conan Member Posts: 69 From: the world Registered: 06-27-2004 |
Ok, things change... Turns out, now i do need someone like you, chelsea, and i think that that someone like you might be you (did anyone understand what i said, cos i didn't). Anyways, if you're interested in helping on an rpg, than email me at rohanmaster@hotmail.com. Thanx for reading this. |
Mack Administrator Posts: 2779 From: Registered: 01-20-2001 |
As you can see, alot of help is needed.
quote: I think this is a win/win situation, here is my suggestion; by helping out these Christian projects you can add the work to your portfolio/demo reel. The Christian developers will get the much needed art and you'll have a fat portfolio and in some cases say that you did some freelance work for a series of companies. Feel free to give me an email as well, we have some models that we would like done as well. ------------------ |

DON'T FORGET ME! I'LL BE YOUR FRIEND TOO! lol. If your looking for a simpler game creation...thing...that makes games, go to www.gamemaker.nl Its what I and some of the other people here use. It mostly makes 2D games but its really easy to work with. And, it is possable to make 3D games with this. Whatevers easier for you. I'm not that good with it, but I'm learning. *whew* That took a long time. ------------------ |

I truelly appreciate all the responses. Its really overwhelming. I didn't expect this much. I'm a bit nervous that you all are expecting too much from me...like I'm some AWESOME 3d artist(which I will be after after more training and blessings from God) Keep in mind that I'm still learning. If you want to see some of my work...let me know...I'll gladly email it to ya and let you judge for yourself how good I am. - Chels ------------------ |

Cheybea, Welcome to CCN. As you can tell, there is a demand for artists and many other disciplines. Once you are further along, check with your school to see if you can do an internship and earn credit towards your degree. Also, you may want to check out this community: Lastly, check out the Christian Game Developers Conference ( http://cgdc.org ). God bless, ------------------ |

OMG! dude! Chelsea! those are awesome. 2 words.... Last Disciple. please.... ------------------ |
Conan Member Posts: 69 From: the world Registered: 06-27-2004 |
Yo! Arch! Umm... I just want you to remember that though you're working on a VERY cool project, cheybea still can decide on her own, ok? Cheybea, no pressure so don't worry, take your time . (in any case, you can always toss a coin to decide stuff, lol) |
bennythebear Member Posts: 1225 From: kentucky,usa Registered: 12-13-2003 |
or she could pray...just a suggestion...and thought i'd state the obvious. ok...shutting up before i ramble. ------------------ www.gfa.org - Gospel for Asia www.persecution.com - Voice of the Martyrs |
Conan Member Posts: 69 From: the world Registered: 06-27-2004 |
Now THAT'S a good suggestion, benny. Obvious, but a good one. Funny how no one else mentioned it before... |
cheybea Member Posts: 40 From: Registered: 10-03-2004 |
Um, I dropped out of college here (Monday)..here's why Beforehand, my mom and I were praying that FullSail (my old college) would offer a Bachelors for Computer Animation 2-3 days later a friend of mine..who works at Fullsail..told me that they would be offering a bachelors for C.A. in January..so I'm mainly just saving money so I can go back. Prayer really works!

conan.. you want to see why I'm begging her? this is some of her work:
------------------ |
Conan Member Posts: 69 From: the world Registered: 06-27-2004 |
Um... Arch, if you'll excuse me... I'D ALREADY SEEN THAT AS SHE SENT IT TO ME FIRST!! AND I'M NOT BEGGING, AM I? Sorry if that sounded rude, but you do need to know that you can't force anyone to help you just because he (or she) is real good at something... |
Max Member Posts: 523 From: IA Registered: 09-19-2004 |
I think a certain level of maturity is needed to be allowed to post. It is not whether or not you ask someone first, it is who that person picks. Ya know, don't act like little kids here guys. ------------------ |

even more than that, its submitting to God's will there are 1000's of really good God things we could be doing for God with our lives, but only so many hours and years, so its best to wait upon the Lord and let him direct our steps, even if it goes outside our normal thinking and choosing processes ------------------ |
