ABOUT

Jason Goodwin
I attended the Art Institute of Austin where I received my Bachelors in Fine Arts. I have over 6 years of experience with the Army and 3 years experience as a freelance artist with individuals and small businesses. Experience includes, 3D artist and animator, character branding, motion graphics, compositing, murals & signs, logos, package designs, visual effects, video production & editing, photography and other apparel designs.
I started The Game Design Program with Round Rock High School over 10 years ago and continue to make changes to improve the classes for students. One of my favorite parts is getting student feedback on the projects and data to drive improvements. Junior and Senior students have published their own games and make money competing with adults in the indie game dev space.
As a teacher, my goal is to foster a learning environment that teaches game design, art and animation techniques, inspiring creativity and increasing student motivation and understanding of the arts leading to a successful career in the game design industry and/or help students for any other career or college.
