So I just had lunch with one of Mookie's longtime friend from Ringling. James Zhang, he is a concept artist from Massive Black, with video game and movie experience. He left that company to form his own, called Concept Art House. Company has been in operations since 2006, and he is doing really well and still growing. He is here in Austin to do business with Mookie's Company called Gemini, another art school that is trying to go online based.
He seemed like a great guy with positive attitude, didn't seem like a selfish bad ass or a bragger at all. Seems like a very hard working guy, who built his company from he ground up. Now he has a studio in San Francisco and Shanghai. And been working with a lot of big clients.
His work was amazing, he has a ton of verity in his company portfolio. Check out the website and you will see what I am talking about. His company is always working with with other IP's and is planning on working on their own comic book series.
I am going to have to find the comic book, because it has sold out in china. Some of his stories is talking about the ancient history of China.
