PETER McLEAN: PROFESSIONAL PROFILE
“Peter is one of the most creative, passionate and unique individuals I know. Any company lucky enough to have him in their services is getting a dedicated, immensely adept artist with many desirable production qualities such as video production, animation, 3d rendering, graphic design, web design and an unrivaled sense of creativity. It was a pleasure working with Peter while he was working with TrainMaster Professional Simulation. I worked with him on many cross-company projects involving promotional videos, product shoots, tutorials, animations, graphics and web promotions and the results were always excellent. I personally recommend Peter for any job which requires these skills or any position or project which he feels he can accomplish successfully. I have nothing but confidence in him and his abilities.” March 12, 2010
