The best isn't always cheap, but it should be affordable.
I've worked on video game creation for the past couple of years while also being a full-time student. The games I have worked on are fully done by the one man team that I comprise. From music creation, art, animation, and design, to voice recording, storyline development, and programming, I have done just about everything there is to do in terms of art and design. Originally, I went to college for music and music performance, later changing to art and design, and now the completely different venue of Psychiatry. I have an array of skills that I exceed at and so a "normal" job doesn't fit my personality. I have the need to change things up and do something different every once in a while, so jobs with an end in sight fit my repertoire best.
Work Terms
All of these are negotiable. I would like to know what exactly the project is before quoting prices, as well as making sure I am a good fit with my employers so as to make sure we will work well together.
