To Whom It May Concern:
Lee Brenton has worked for G-Netech since 03/07/02. He was one of the first employees at our company, and has been a dedicated and integral member of our team.
During the time of his employment he has displayed an excellent attitude to work in all circumstances, even during high pressure deadline sensitive projects. I have been very impressed with his technical skills in the Maya animation package, and he has constantly been willing to learn and extend himself into new areas. Lee was always punctual, and there have been many times when there have been projects involving substantial overtime, and in many cases he has worked through the entire night to make sure a project is delivered on time.
One thing that has been very noticeable is his ability to create humorous stories and settings for his animated characters. His characters are easy to relate to and display excellent modeling and animation skills.
Lee has an excellent attitude towards his work and towards other staff, is very dedicated to what he loves and to the company. He has also shown that he has skills in teaching; Lee worked as a digital media tutor at Bond University, and has spent considerable time with work experience students in-house showing them the capabilities of an advanced animation package. I have no doubt that Lee will have a long and successful career in whatever direction he chooses to go in.
Please feel free to contact me for any further information regarding Lee or his work.

To Whom It May Concern,
It was my pleasure to teach Lee Brenton last year at QANTM Australia in the Diploma of Screen Animation. Lee came to the course with an extensive knowledge of 3D animation and video skills. He built upon this knowledge by learning to apply traditional animation principles to 3D animation. He also learnt scriptwriting for short films, storyboarding, lip sync phonemes and sound track production, amongst other subjects. Lee’s final film was unique, entertaining, and very popular with the audiences that viewed the end of year presentations.
Lee has a keen interest in becoming a 3D animator and has been very proactive in developing his skills. Lee has many strengths. He posses an ability to work with people and is well liked by everyone that meets him. He has a good grasp of character development and seems to know what is appealing to an audience. Lee has a great memory for recalling conversations, which serves him well in learning new skills and applying advice he is given for improving his work. He works well with Maya but can adapt his skills to any 3D software package.
I can strongly recommend Lee for any position regarding 3D animation.
Yours sincerely,
Mark Stay

To Whom It May Concern:
Lee Brenton worked with Artrite Studios for the period beginning June 1998 and ending November 1999. During this time, although he was already quite skilled, he displayed problem solving skills and an enthusiastic eagerness to learn. We often turned to Lee for ideas regarding 3D problems.
Lee managed in a professional environment very well, everything from client liaison to sourcing work. He has a friendly nature and was both liked and respected, Lee still keeps in contact.
I highly recommend Lee for any digital artist position.
Yours sincerely
Vincent Kerr
