On the weekend I rode my skateboard 100km for @thePMCF with the Toronto E-riders! We smashed our donation goal and have been resting our legs. #fundraiser #CancerResearch

@LiamTart I ended up drawing a hard line of 6pm I'm done. And I got back into the physical hobbies I love (skating mostly). It occupies my mind and body so much during it I literally can't spin and think about work.

[Karen Stanley @Kazperstan]

@MeshModeler Kneeded to see that.

@chrisradsby I took a good few months off (all be it life chose for me) 2 years ago now. It was actually great for my relationship towards work and I found my love for old hobbies again.

@vaccaro3d @DestinLegarie The Nvidia driver account drives me mad. It's always logged out when I need to update and I can never remember the password because I never look at it unless updating a driver...

[Karen Stanley @Kazperstan]

@PurePolygons It was great seeing you to! Excited to see where Sierra Division goes!

[Karen Stanley @Kazperstan]

My feet and voice are well and truly cooked. #GDC2024 complete. It's been a terrible year for the games industry, but meeting and talking with everyone and seeing all the cool shit being made has once again ignited my spark and love for this industry.

[Karen Stanley @Kazperstan]

@lilmissphillips MEL I can't believe we missed each other. Hope we get to catch up one day soon.

[Karen Stanley @Kazperstan]

I do a lot of destruction simulation and this had my head buzzing with the fact it could make being able to clean up the mess that fracture Sims cause much easier.

[Karen Stanley @Kazperstan]

There is actually some great tools on display at #GDC2024 this year. @InstaLOD was a stand out for me. It's more than just a LOD tool and could be very useful for scan data Artists or anyone handling incredibly high poly meshes that need to make their way into games engines

[Karen Stanley @Kazperstan]

Come say hi of you see me!

[Karen Stanley @Kazperstan]

@chrisradsby Factoring in the "oh.. yeah nah that didn't actually work out " time as well because you can't always get it perfect first time despite the best of planning. It's like science, you have a theory, you test it. Sometimes you prove your theory wrong 😅

My last project at PlayStation Studios was on The Last of Us Part II Remastered, doing rig setup, character skinning, and cloth sim. If anyone needs a character technical director who's into character rigging and developing tools in Maya with Python, I'm looking.

[Karen Stanley @Kazperstan]

@prtofdacrowd Such a shitty day. London studio gave me my career and I'm so sad it's gone. Let me know if I can help in anyway for your job search ❤️

[Karen Stanley @Kazperstan]

@jadel4w It's the most idiotic thing I've seen this industry do with Teams in the "AAA" Studios. "Wow thanks, your team was efficient, gold standard. Top marks. We are going to disband you now and scatter you all on to 50 different projects never to see each other again..."

[Karen Stanley @Kazperstan]

@maartenjhof Best hire we ever made 😘👌

[Karen Stanley @Kazperstan]

Do it.

[Maarten Hof @maartenjhof]

I have been wanting to do mentorships for a long time but my imposter syndrome is kinda holding me back. In a way to give back to the community and show myself that I can do this - I’d like to do a few sessions for free!
