I graduated from a vocational design\u00a0school in Sapporo, and worked for a local\u00a0app development company. However, I wanted to challenge new things,\u00a0and saw\u00a0Amata&#8217;s online wanted ad. It seemed like\u00a0a company that was willing to invest\u00a0in the growth of its employees. I also thought it was nice that they had an office in Sapporo while the head office was in Tokyo. Amata sounded perfect for me (LOL). I received training in Tokyo for six months, and\u00a0it\u00a0was as exactly as I had expected, so\u00a0I then wanted to remain in Tokyo, and I&#8217;ve been here ever since.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Worked hard for a fulfilling year.<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I had a fulfilling year, working on new challenges such as creating the UI, which I hadn&#8217;t had much experience with, and working on 3D , which I was allowed to be involved in right from the beginning data layout stages. \u00a0It was great fun. To be honest, I was worried about\u00a0whether I had attained my goals, and whether or not I met the expectations of the client and staff. However, I did work hard to reach a level I could be happy with. When I heard that the client liked my work, it really increased my motivation.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A company that makes full use of its employees.<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I love the company. I has a nice atmosphere. I can discuss things in a frank and honest way. \u00a0 I was surprised to find none of the complicated politics usually found in companies. Although it might be simply because I am unaware\u00a0of them (LOL). The company has various systems in place to allow\u00a0employees to work comfortably. It also provides opportunities for those with the drive and motivation. \u00a0For example, even staff who only have experience\u00a0in 2D are also allowed to try their hands at\u00a03D. I think it\u2019s a\u00a0really\u00a0great environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Those with\u00a0visions for game development are\u00a0welcome.<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My dream is to create a great game that I can be proud of, a major title. After gaining experience in art direction, I want to become a game director in the future, and I think it would be great if I could\u00a0advance to an even higher layer. Although having good skills is certainly important, it is not only a matter of &#8220;Game development&#8221; = &#8220;Skills&#8221;\u00a0x\u00a0 &#8220;Work.&#8221; I feel excited when I work with people who have a clear vision and motivation for game development. \u00a0From now on, I want to do a lot of great work, and pass on my experience and knowledge to younger employees.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center; padding: 40px 0 0 0;\"><span class=\"btn_text\"><a href=\"http:\/\/amata.co.jp\/en\/careers\/interview\">back to index<\/a><\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Successful escape\u00a0from Sapporo (!?).
