CASSY PORITZ, (BCA-VEED)
(SHE/HER) VISUAL DEVELOPMENT ARTIST, ART GENERALIST
CASSY SAYS
“As a thriving Concept Artist, I've developed a deep understanding of what is required in the entertainment and creative industry, especially in Adelaide. Alongside university, and for the past year, I've been able to work inside the Games industry with Catalyst Games (and small indie companies) as a part of Games Plus, and the experience I've been able to gain has allowed me to grow so much as a Freelance Artist, as well as what it means to be in the entertainment business here in Adelaide as well.”
“My first experience at CDW Studios was having the opportunity to do my Year 10 work experience at CDW's in 2015. After getting to know Simon and other staff and students, as well as attending my first ever Holiday Workshop, I quickly fell in love with the creative world that CDW Studios was.
When I graduated high school in 2017, I wanted to study another degree (Bachelor in Design (Illustration and Animation)) to ready myself for CDW Studios, and year after year since starting CDW Studios in 2021, I've gained more and more experience to be a better artist and grown significantly both mentally and creatively.
Though the last few years I've had my struggles, I always try to get myself back up, wanting to show my potential to the world, and saying proudly that CDW Studios is what has always inspired me and pushed me to do better, to make better, and be better.”
