Emilio Di Pietro, Deputy Head of Creative Arts, Salisbury,

I have worked at the College for six years now, teaching Games Development at Level 3 and Games Animation at HND. I am also a local artist in Andover: I enjoy creating traditional fine art, sci-fi and fantasy landscape artwork using digital and traditional mediums. I enjoy painting, drawing and exploring new places of inspiration for my artwork and 3D modelling. I enjoy investigating and playing with emerging technologies, especially pertaining to Games Design and Media.
