Paul Tanompong

After graduating with a degree in Visual Communications, Paul took a job with Seven Studios. Last year, he moved to San Francisco to take a job with Electronic Arts as a character modeler and texture artist for My SIMS 3 for Nintendo Wii, due to release in early 2009.

Here’s what Paul has to say about his experience at Platt:

DECIDING TO GO to Platt College basically changed my life for the better. I’ve met some of the most talented students and instructors. I can honestly say that I enjoyed every class I had. Although at times it seem like the pace is very fast, but I knew going in that the way it is. But I stuck to it and did my best and Platt helped me achieve my long time goal, to get a degree.

THE MULTIMEDIA AND 3D course at Platt is great. Knowing 3D was essential to me getting into the game industry or movie industry. Learning how to model, UV map and texture 3D models correctly and efficiently comes into play in the daily courses.

I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND Platt COllege to anyone who is serious about taking charge of their life and finding a great career. Platt college is fast, efficient, and affordable. Time and money is a small price to pay for not only a great job, but a great career. Instructor and staff are very professional. Career placements is also very well organized. Platt college found me 2 jobs, one while I was attending, and the other after I graduated. I’ve been in the game industry for about 3 years now and loving it, thanks to Platt College.
