Hello Internet! Thanks for coming to the ‘start’ of my Adventures in Game Development!
Hi Pat! It’s good to
be here...I think! Unless...it's not good to be here, because of ghouls or
spiders or something. Are there ghouls?
No. That's a weird question.
Wait, is this a scam? Are you trying to get a kidney or something? Do I need my credit card?
Just stop. I'll tell you what's happening. My goal
for this space is to explore all areas of game development, but with a focus on gameplay
animation because that’s what I do. My name is Pat
Gillette and I’m the lead gameplay animator at 343 Industries. I spend my days
animating Spartans, Covenant, Prometheans, etc. for Microsoft on the Halo series.

Nah, I'm good. Let's keep talking
about the other thing. Like what is a gameplay animator?
That’s a complicated
question Internet but I’ll do my best to break it down for you since you seem
like good people. I believe a gameplay animator should be made up of
three elements; Zirconium, Unobtanium and Vibranium...wait no... that's
not it. Animator, Designer, and
Player. Yep. That sounds right to me now. But Pat you say, what do you mean by
that nonsense?
I didn't say that.
I'm pretty sure you did but no matter, I'll still break each element down for you if you promise to come back.
Ok. Yay! Learning!
Huzzah to that internet! Huzzah!
