Catherine Haldane's 3D Character Animator resume in the Reef template

Reef template

Catherine Haldane, 3D Character Animator

Catherine Haldane is a 3D character animator five years into games work, from an indie studio to a AAA release, and applying for a senior animator role at a studio building action titles. An animator is hired on shipped titles and on what the animation did for the game, so this resume names the two studios, the AAA release and its sales, a player-immersion figure from the tester surveys, and the juniors trained.

Why this resume works

  • The AAA release is given with its sales, over five million copies in six months, so the scale of what shipped is on the page.
  • Player immersion up 35% in the tester surveys is the one number that ties the animation to the game's reception rather than to the pipeline.
  • Training three junior animators within a month is kept as its own bullet, which is the senior-role evidence in a five-year history.
  • The hard skills run twelve tools one a line down the column, from ZBrush to Cinema 4D, so a studio can check its own pipeline against them at a glance.
  • A Soft Skills section is drawn as chips in the column, and four dated certificates sit under their own disc, which shows the toolset is being kept current.
