3D Artist
Jess Millar
Welcome to my portfolio. I am a 3D game artist and have worked on projects such as Proxy Soldier, a game created in my graduating year of college, as well as a VR game for the National Science and Innovation Gala. I have mentored a high school student while creating renders of a Science and Innovation center for their high school. Currently I focus my efforts on several personal projects including a collaboration with another game developer.
​
My Qualifications include :
​
3D Modeling
Taking interesting concepts and recreating them in 3D
Strong attention to even the smallest of details
Patience and consistent effort throughout the entire process
​
Texturing
Creating high quality textures and using a variety of different texture maps to achieve realistic and aesthetically pleasing results
​
Animation
Creating life from previously inanimate things
Creating fun and believable animations that fit the theme of the character, creature or object
​
I currently work in the Ottawa area and am recently graduated from Algonquin College's Game Development program.

Science and Innovation Center Renders
These are renders of a Science and Innovation center that is to be built for a local high school. On this project I worked to educate a student on how to model, texture, animate and create realistic lighting and rendered images of the Science and Innovation center based off of floor plans we were provided.
