Concept Designer
James Clyne attended the University of California
at Santa Barbara where he studied Fine Art and
Painting. Eager to focus on design, he attended
Art Center College of Design as an Industrial
Design major focusing on entertainment design.
Clyne began his professional career designing
creatures, characters, and environments for gaming
companies such as Sega, Activision, and Pulse
Entertainment. Wanting to expand his work in
entertainment design further, James began consulting
as a concept artist and storyboard artist for
special effects houses such as Digital Domain
and Rhythm and Hues. His early work in film began
with Terry Gilliam’s Fear and Loathing
in Las Vegas. Soon to follow were Instinct,
Titan A.E., Mission to Mars, Galaxy
Quest, Mystery Men, A.I.-Artificial
Intelligence, Minority Report, The
Polar Express, and Troy for
which he provided conceptual designs for environments,
sets, props, matte paintings, and vehicles.
