Biography

Joe Kilner studied at Churchill college,Cambridge where he studied the Natural Sciences Tripos for two years (focusing on Geology) and then moved on to the Computer Science tripos for his third year. After graduating he worked for SCEE Team Soho on TIF2002 and The Getaway (mainly on the animation systems and facial animation), at Aspelle (sadly no longer in buisness), and finally at Criterion Software Ltd. on Renderware. He is currently pursuing a PhD whilst working at the CVSSP at the University of Surrey as a Research Fellow.
