01 / ABOUT ME

Hey, I'm Dalisay MT - The Internet's Favourite Art Director (hearsay) - an art director and art producer, passionate about clear direction and communication, mentorship , collaboration, and cross-functional development. Also I'm hilarious.

Currently working from my home office based in Toronto, Canada.

ABOUT ME —ABOUT ME

I hold a Bachelor of Applied Arts from Sheridan College and several Canadian Screen Awards for my work.

I also have fifteen years of practical experience as a lead, and art director in the video games and animation industry here in Toronto and abroad. This gives me unbeatable insight into the development pipeline.

Many colleagues also feel comfortable confiding in me professionally, regardless of the hierarchy - meaning I have developed a real connection with every person I've worked with.

I had the pleasure of working with Dali on Dead by Daylight, and I can confidently say she was an incredible collaborator. As an Associate Art Director, she brought a strong creative vision and a deep commitment to fostering diversity and inclusivity in all aspects of the project. Her passion for social issues was evident in her leadership, ensuring that our artistic direction was both compelling and meaningful.

Beyond her talent, working with Dali was truly inspiring. She cultivated a collaborative and supportive environment where ideas thrived, and her dedication to excellence elevated every aspect of our work. Any team looking for a passionate and thoughtful Art Director would be incredibly fortunate to have her!

I collaborated with Dali closely for 2 years during their time at Behaviour. I was constantly impressed by how organized they were when managing their team, the detail of the notes they took, the quality of the feedback they gave, and the passion in which they undertook their work. They communicated very clearly across disciplines, which enabled us to find new successes in an established and strict timeline.

Additionally, they are involved in mentoring other artists both on their team as part of work and those outside of work during their spare time. They genuinely care about helping others to grow, and would be an excellent addition for your team!

Dali was a wonderful Associate AD- she was very communicative and direct about the needs of the project, the scope of time and resources we had, and the expectations we would face. They would spend time figuring out what we cared most about improving, and help get us resources they felt we needed to obtain those goals. I cannot speak highly enough in support of how streamlined the relationship was. Dali would be a great fit for your project.

I focus on mentoring teams into more impactful contributors while identifying workflow improvements—often helping departments move significantly ahead of schedule, by as much as two months.

Recommendations

I had the pleasure of working closely with Dalisay at Clipwire Games on both Bingo Story and Solitaire Pets. Dalisay was a fantastic Art Lead who I could always rely upon for status updates. Their organization abilities are top tier and gave me, as producer, confidence in work estimates and deliverable dates. Lastly, their ability to develop and work with more junior artists has to be commended. I witnessed firsthand new members on the team transform from tentative junior artists into confident, empowered contributors under Dalisay. I can't recommend them enough!

-Owen B

Working with Dalisay was a pleasure and honor. Not only are they are a great and generous collaborator, but they have ability to always look out for what people's needs instead of simply their wants. Collaborators or Players. This long-term view allows them to be a great vision holder, rallying and empowering others along in the shared creative endeavour.

Dalisay is a leader in the truest sense of the word because of their ability to collaborate, nurture and care for those around them, without relying on hierarchy to get work done.

-Nicolas BK

I've had the pleasure of working with Dali both at Behaviour and back at Gameloft. Both times have been amazing. They are someone who really brings the whole package to whatever project or team they are on. They care about their team's growth, success and well being, and they always aim to delivery top notch work. Even when faced with tasks outside of their knowledge they jump into the challenge and learn everything they need to get up-to-speed and comfortable to ensure deadlines are met. Dali is someone who is easy to talk to as well and enjoys getting invovled with company events. Anyone would be lucky to have them on their team and company!
