Jonathan Williamson
I’ve been working in 3D since 2002. I love what I do and I try to show that through my commitment to quality. I’ve worked on a vast number of independent and commercial projects ranging from lowpoly game characters to high-res, animated intros.
Aside from my freelance work, I have also spent a good amount of time teaching. I participated and taught at two Montreal Blender conferences, the New Your Blender conference, and I was part of a small team that taught Blender at a Summer camp for Jr. Highschool students hosted by Red Hat Linux. On my own time I have also produced a number of video tutorials and published three training DVDs.
My two passions are creating art and passing on what I’ve learned, I do my best to show this through my work and by always trying to give back to the community that has taught me so much.</long>
My hourly rate is negotiable but I prefer to work on a per project basis.
