After receiving his Bachelor of Architecture from Syracuse University and working in that field for several years, Pryce Jones realized that 1. Making entertainment art looks more fun, and 2. Many of the techniques he’d learned for designing real buildings would work for virtual worlds. He then embarked on a career in video games and has spent the past 11 years as an environment artist, concept painter, and art director. He was a core contributor on some of the industry’s biggest titles, his first being Pool of Radiance, followed by Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, Blood Wake, and Demon Stone, all while at Stormfront Studios. He then went to Crystal Dynamics (Eidos), where he worked on Legacy of Kain: Defiance and Tomb Raider: Legend. Then, while at Shaba (Activision), Pryce worked on Shrek Super Slam and the video game version of Shrek III. Life after Shrek saw Pryce move onto Lucas Arts, where he worked on the next-gen version of Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings. He then did stints as an art director at Pronto Games and Mind Control Software on a series of casual game titles before moving on to Gazillion Entertainment on a yet-to-be-named MMO.  Before joining Academy of Art University in 2009, Pryce was a visiting instructor at the Art Institute in San Francisco and The Animation Workshop in Viborg, Denmark, teaching matte painting and background design.
