ABOUT JANEL HEIGHTON
I’m a multidisciplinary creative who loves turning big ideas into working, scalable realities. With a background spanning CG supervision, creative ops, and environment art, I’ve spent 10+ years working on teams between 2 and 200 people - smoothing pipelines, and bringing beautiful worlds to life in games, animation, VR, and creative tech.I\'ve worked on indie developments, right up to big IPs: Barbie, Inspector Gadget, Assassin\'s Creed and more.I’m happiest where art, systems, and people meet- helping teams stay aligned, supported, and inspired while making sure production actually flows. I thrive in fast-paced environments, and love joining teams that are looking to solve new, weird and challenging production questions. When it comes to to art, I love making anything colourful, stylized or has a little hint of punk.My sweet spots include:Leading cross-disciplinary teams (remote included!)Making pipelines smoother, faster, and happier for artistsTranslating creative vision into real, shippable workBuilding tools, workflows, and structures that scaleKeeping stakeholders aligned without the dramaTools I vibe with: Maya, Unity, Unreal, Substance, Python, C#, ShotGrid, JIRA… and any place where creativity and systems get to be best friends.
