Interview with 3D Artist John

We interviewed John, a pro 3D artist and long-term Her Interactive employee!

Her interactive: How long have you worked at Her Interactive?

Oh boy, I’ve been here for just over 11 years.  I’ve started as an intern, so if you include my internship it’s almost 12 years.

Her interactive: What do you like about working at Her Interactive?

Believe me, people that I work with makes a big difference.  They are all talented and fun to be working with.

Her interactive: Name one of your favorite, memorable environments.

Wow, I have so many environments that I like but I think my favorite is Apartment in Shadow at the Water’s Edge.  Why?  Because the room design was based on my sister’s apartment in Japan.

Her interactive: If you could visit any location in a Nancy Drew Game, where would you go?

I’ve never been to a Europe, so Germany may be nice.

Her interactive: Is there an environment you would like to create in the future?

Let’s go to Space Exploration!! 🙂

Her interactive: If you attended a murder mystery dinner party, which character would you most likely be?

A)     The Culprit

B)      The Victim

C)      The Innocent Dinner Guest

D)     The Inspector

A ) The Culprit.  Because I’m usually very good at hiding my identity.

If you had to decide between one of the following actions, which would you choose?

Catch a culprit, spend the night in a haunted house, or discover a hidden passageway or room.

I also like to explore, so definitely enjoy discovering hidden or new places.

Her interactive: Do you have any fun extra bits of info or fun facts about what you do? Any secrets or stories you’d like to share?

Well, my very first game that I’ve worked as an intern was a Message in a Haunted Mansion.

Remember the ransom note “LEAVE THE MANSION NOW!” That was my writing and no second take; I’ve wrote it only once and made it to a game….yes!!

 

Thanks John for all of your hard work over the years and for helping to make Nancy’s world come to life!
