August Thomson is a recent graduate from BCIT, looking to work as a 3D Rigging Artist. Similar to the way a marionette puppet comes to life with strings and a handle, a character model in the world of 3D computer graphics relies on a Rigger to build these digital strings and handles. August has experience in rigging robots, bipedal characters, quadrupeds, and coding rigging tools using python. He has worked with other 3D artists on student projects for small games and animations. August has attended Okanagan collage, Vancouver Island University and BCIT. August’s exceptional work ethic has been developed through his various roles in hospitality and silviculture work. August grew up sculpting characters out of any clay he could get his hands on. He would create characters from the films and video games he grew up watching and playing. His love of these films sent him to Weta Workshop in New Zealand to see the inner workings of such a renown industry. After being inspired by Weta he began rigging, digital sculpting and 3D printing which motivated him to pursue an education in 3D computer graphics.…August Thomson is a recent graduate from BCIT, looking to work as a 3D Rigging Artist.
