Biography
Having recently graduated from BCIT's 3D Modeling program, Jordan Aspinall aims to apply his skills in the film and video game industry to help build worlds and tell stories that inspire players the same way they have inspired him.
With extensive experience working in team-based environments Jordan has been active both in and outside of the classroom helping his team's collaborative projects come to fruition and assisting his instructors with BCIT’s “Big Info” open-house events.
In his free time, Jordan is often reading Heavy Metal Magazine (and is excited for its return), flipping through various “style guides” or “the art of” books, and staying active at his local in-door climbing gym.
