Ian Spriggs

3D Character Artist

I am a 3D Character Artist. Currently, I am working as the Lead Character Artist in the Unity Labs department Vancouver. Character Modelling has always been my main focus, I especially love portraiture.

I find it exciting that we are the first to tackle the challenges of the digital human, representing the human has been an aim ever since art was created, and now we are lucky enough to be the generation to figure out the uncanny valley and how to overcome it.

I have been in the digital entertainment industry for 14 years. Previously I have worked at companies like Image Engine, OatsStudios, ILM, MrX and Starz. I’ve worked on films such as Mulan, John Wick, Carnival Row, Lost in Space, Zygote, Rakka, Adam, WarCraft, Superman vs Batman, Crimson Peak, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children, Robocop, Pompeii and Mama.
