Recommendation

Norbert Cellier

Principal, Head Of Studies at DSK Supinfogame - Pune (India)

I started working with Cyril 3 years ago at DSK International Campus India. Cyril joined the campus as a Game Design Trainer. He is well appreciated by the students for his expertise as Game Designer but also as a very good Level Designer. He also participated actively to the organisation of the school as a very good programmer while providing us a fully functional Intranet. I will recommend Cyril not only for his Game Design skills but also for his human qualities.

Guillaume Benoit

Head of Department Game Design at DSK Supinfogame - Pune (India)

Cyril is a highly professional designer. His impressive skills in level design and also programming make him strong technical designer. He is really dedicated toward the success and the improvement on the projects he works on, and doesn't count his time to push it further. Kind, calm and friendly, Cyril is a great team member that we can trust and rely on. It was a real pleasure to have him in my team.

Alexis Madinier

CEO at DSK Green Ice Games - Pune (India)

Cyril is an amazing designer/level designer / jack of all trade !

his skills in programming and his motivation to do more by himself just because it will make the company better makes him an important asset in any kind of company. Without his dedication and him spending his free time programming tools for the school, the school would not have been able to function as well as it did. His technical skills and level design skills makes him the perfect technical level design director you can find.

Philippe Duhem

Lead Design at Widescreen Games - Lyon (France)

Cyril Dupont est venu effectuer un stage dans l’équipe de design d’identifiction.

Il a été intégré à l’équipe en place en période de pré-production pour participer au design des niveaux, à l’élaboration des documents de level design et pour se former à l’outil interne de build.

Très rapidement, Cyril Dupont s’est révélé être une recrue de choix, toujours ponctuel et très disponible.

Tout le monde a vite oublié son statut de stagiaire tant ses aptitudes se sont révélées précieuses pour la production. Son sens naturel du travail en équipe, sa rigueur, son background de codeur éclairé, sa technicité générale et la maturité de sa vision du design font de Cyril Dupont quelqu’un que je recommande sans réserves.
