Get To Know Our Intern RJ
RJ joined the Starry Hollow team back in January for a 5 month internship, where he's been working on various upcoming projects, mainly on art and animation. We are really excited to be a part of teaching the next generation of games industry talent, and love the new perspective's we've been getting from a GenZ hahaha. We pestered him with a few questions to help you get to know him better!
What was your favorite game growing up? It’s hard to only choose one! If I were to pick my top 3 they would be Pokémon Black and White, Skylanders Giants, and Lego Batman. I’ve spent a collective 1,200 hours on all of those games!
If you could teleport into any game world, which would it be?
It would definitely be in between Teyvat from Genshin Impact, or Pandora from Borderlands! They are both beautiful places but I doubt I’d last long…
Who in the industry do you look up to?
In the games industry Hideo Kojima and Eiji Aonuma are definitely the people I look up to the most, Their works are indescribably amazing!
What is your dream company to work at?
My dream company to work at is RIOT GAMES. I’m a pretty big fan of most of their projects and it would be cool to work on them!
Who is your favourite artist?
When it comes to ‘the classics’ I’d either go for Alexandre Cabanel or Van Goh. But if we are talking about currently Tatsuki fujimoto's mastery of raw emotion in his work is truly inspiring!
Do you have anime comic/anime/manga/cartoon recommendations?
This is by far the hardest question for me to answer! But as far as comics and manga go, Tatsuki Fujimoto’s Chainsaw Man, Bryan Lee O’Malley’s Scott Pilgrim, and Robert Kirkman’s Invincible! As far as cartoons/ anime go, Frieren and Bocchi The Rock are amazing!
Here are some quickfire questions!
What do you listen to while you work?: I enjoy listening to slow songs while I work. Specifically Laufey and Radiohead
Meyer Briggs personality type?: I’m an INFP-T like Arthur Fleck! Wait, is that a good thing…
D&D alignment?: Chaotic Good!
Hogwarts house?: Hufflepuff!
When it comes to gaming, PC, console, mobile or tabletop? PC!
Which fictional character are you most like?: Hitori Gotō (Bocchi) is the true embodiment of being an introvert while still being dedicated to a craft!
We also wanted to show off some of the awesome work RJ has been doing for us, so here is a little sneak peak of a character for an upcoming unannounced game we are working on!
We are super thrilled to have RJ on the team, and wish him all the luck in the world for when he starts university in the fall, with a major in animation!
