Thank you everyone that came by, it was very nice to meet people who like my work in person. I had a great time. Hopefully everyone of you did too.

Hello guys,

I will be attending Otakuthon 2015 this year August 7-9. It is one of the anime con that is being hosted in Montreal. I will be at a Q&A Panel with Jeff Simpson jeffsimpsonkh answering any question you may have regarding working in the game industry or any art inquires. I will also have a table selling some prints of my work. Please feel free to drop by and say Hi!

On a side note, I would really like to know which one would any of you be interested in getting at a convention. This will help me gauge whether if I should actually print them out or not. Here is a list of my works that I thought might be more suited for the convention. If you would kindly please just type at the comment section, the Number of the artwork you would be interested in having.

Thank you everyone!
Ben

Hello Everyone,

First of all I would like to thank you all for all your kind words and compliments on my work. I do read them all, but I don't have time to write a reply to everyone now. So all i can say for now is Thank you! *bow*

It has been a long time since I've written a Journal Entry on DA, not since 2009 when I started working at Irrational. It has been almost 4 years since then. I have learned a lot at Irrational, and was very fortunate to be able to work on Bioshock Infinite. It was such an amazing feeling seeing it from the beginning all the way to it's final product. I'm really happy how it turned out. I hope everyone of you who have played it enjoyed it as much as I did. And Thank you all for your support on the game.

In the Summer of 2012, I actually moved on from Irrational, and moved back to Canada, closer to home (toronto) and family. I'm currently working with the very talented team here at Bioware Montreal. We're currently working on the next Mass Effect Title. I can't reveal anything much about it yet, other than it is looking amazing. I can't wait to see where this will take us when the game comes out.


Anyway that is all i have to say for now, I hope everyone is having a great summer!

About time I write a new journal entry, hahaha )

I've recently graduated and moved to Boston for work. All I can say is that time really flies. I can still remember the times back in high school when I was deciding on what do I really wanted to do for the rest of my life. "I wanted to become an animator," was what I thought back then. That was the main reason I threw myself into the animation program at Sheridan. It was hell. But after going through it, I realized that it was worth it. I did not become an animator though. At some point in 3rd year was when I realized that what I really wanted to do was concept art. And I really did it. It was through the help from a bunch of my friends, teaching me from none to be able to create paintings thats actually something what people would like. I just don't know how to thank them. I er... I think i blabed on too much, hahaha )

So anyway, Thank you all so much for dropping by. Despite my laziness to reply, I do read every single comments posted on here ). If you do have any question, you are more than welcome to just send me a note or ask me on msn.

School is finally over. The group film we had to do was truly an experience from hell. But I'm glad that our group managed to finish it completely ( even tho there might be some sfx missing). Everyone this year did an awesome job. Congrats!!

What I'm really looking forward to this summer is the coop work term we're going to have. I'm going to Vancouver for mine this summer. I haven't been there before, but I've heard many great things about it. I'm really excited to get there!




Here is some of my friends from school )
