My name is Christian Berg, I was born and raised in Sweden. I have a wild imagination and have always loved to create things. As a child I used to draw, make comics and write stories, but then gradually switched over to level design after discovering the Warcraft 2 Map Editor. To this day I still enjoy drawing as well as writing poems or short lyrics as music has recently become a growing interest of mine.
I used to create small hobby projects and matinees using the Warcraft 3 Editor some years back, then I switched over to UnrealED upon discovering Unreal Tournament 2003. I have both worked alone as well as in various community and mod groups such as the UCMP (Ultimate Community Map Pack) and Angels Fall First: Planetstorm. It was during my participation in one of these groups that I suddenly started pushing myself to constantly improve and develop more and better material to showcase the modding community.
When I finished high-school in 2007 I had no idea what I wanted to do for a living. Pursuing a career involving art seemed interesting but I felt my drawing skills were lacking. I was later introduced to "The Garden" here in Sweden, a school that taught game and level design. After a year of theory and practical work as well as a 20 week internship period at Beyond Ascension on top of that, I am now finished with my studies and ready to look for actual work as a professional level designer. | |
