I've always had this creative streak, and it began around the age of 11 when I watched the movie Real Steel and the series Grimm. From there, I knew I could develop a passion for the creative world, and now I'm giving my all to make it happen.

Since i was 10yo, I want work in 3d and video game industry. Since my 1st year of study, i m passionate about doing 3d art.

I realised I wanted to work in the creative media and entertainment industry few years ago (2014), after my baccalaureate when I discovered that schools of video games existed in France.

At 7, I discovered my love for video games. I was unsure of my future profession and my school asked for a dream job presentation. This lead me to explore my family members careers. Luckily, my youngest uncle who's a fellow gaming enthusiast, became a Game Designer. Trying his games sparked my passion for a creative career, especially in the gaming industry. Later, in high school, I discovered my first 3D software, falling in love with digital sculpting, especially character art.

I started this study mainly following my love for video games, so I would say since forever. This love never left me, but it took me some years to realize that I should follow it. I would say since 5/6 years ago when I decided to enter a games art study. That was only in the last two years that I developed a strong interest in visual effect and decide to change my course to leave video games and go in visual effect.

I want to work in the creative merdia since i was yong. I always play video games, and over the year i discover all the beauty of what can be done in 3d

I Always want to work in entertainment industry but I really realise that in my first year or school.

At 16, I discovered the creative industries while looking for my future dream job. Despite my teachers advice to pursue traditional paths, the video game industry enchanted me. For the first time, the realm of employment intrigued me as my passion for drawing and my love for the beautiful artworks that I admired as a child. That's when I realised that I haved found my life purpose.

Ever since I was a kid, I've always loved creating stories and exciting worlds that can whisk people away to new places. Now, through my studies in Game Design, I have the chance to turn that dream into a reality.

when I realized that I really could. It's not just a dream.

I wans't always an artist from the start. After trying several studies like economics or sociology I understood that something was missing in my life I always wanted to work for video games but i wasn't sure it was even a thing So i started to do some research and i was amazed by the creation process of the characters and the environnements That was at this moment that it begins to clarify that i wanted to work seriously in the creative field as a 3D artist for games

I think my 3d fascination probably began with the dinosaur documentaries we all saw. Then, my movies and games interest helped me focus on it. I have finally been convinced this industry was the one I wanted to be part of the day I realized I constantly noticed and analyzed all kinds of the 3d apparition.

I first realised that i wanted to work in the creative media and entertainment industry because of video games. 3rd year student in 3D Animation at Ynov Bordeaux. Specialized in 3D modeling of characters and environment.

For my part, I always wanted to work on a computer, when I was little I was a fan of special effects in movies, and I went in this direction. And I liked it!

I played a lot of video games since I'm a kid and I like all the different universes that we can discover in them. When I was a kid, my big brother was in a 3D modeling association. Sometimes I went visit him to check what is he doing. I really liked what they were doing and I started to learn 3D too on my own. It was just for fun but I liked it so much,when I moved to Bordeaux and saw a 3D school, I know that's what I wanted to do. I jumped at the chance and now I can live off my passion.

I was mainly doing drawing before and got interest in 3D modeling when I start to sculpt on wood and thought "why not doing sculpt on computer ?" So I ended going to school to have solid base, since I had no knowledge at all about 3D, and now I'm self-learning with tutorials, forum, and discord.
