ABOUT ME
Lee has a Degree in Three Dimensional Design from Wolverhampton University. He specialised in Product Design, with a view to starting a career in the Entertainment Industry. His first real break was a five year stint at RARE Ltd. where he initially designed a variety of construction and demolition vehicles in BLAST CORPS (an N64 Launch game), then environments and characters in DONKEY KONG COUNTRY 3 for the SNES, until he was invited to join the GOLDEN EYE team on PERFECT DARK where he was involved in designing and modelling weapons, vehicles, environments and characters.
In April 1999, he decided to further his career by becoming a founder member of FREE RADICAL DESIGN Ltd. For the next five years he was a Senior Artist at the company contributing to 2 games in the TIMESPLITTERS series. He also established contact with OSPREY PUBLISHING and produced illustrations on a contract basis.
Then, always interested in new challenges he spent six months living in Australia and worked with KROME in Brisbane, and IR Gurus in Melbourne
In March of 2007, he returned to England and he worked as an artist for REBELLION Ltd in Derby. Titles worked on included THE SIMPSONS, SHELLSHOCK 2, and ROGUE WARRIOR, as well as Concept work for other projects.
In September 2009 he started a three month contract working for the BBC on a childrens’ T.V. show called “HOUNDED”. Hired as the sole Concept Designer, his job was to design, build and texture a dozen fantasy and Sci-Fi vehicles and characters for the 13- episode series. These ranged from a “container for the world wide web” to a “sheep-shaped star ship!”
Lee is currently collaborating in other projects and cultivating contacts within the Film and T.V industry with a view to promoting his work and career.
