Uncover Hidden Talent: Hire the World’s Top New Digital Artists
I've always loved Mario Bros, since I was a kid. I am from a small country and never got the chance to talk to someone who worked in the industry. Then before college I was in between technical careers and a random faculty staff guy approached me and showed me a brochure that included the subject "E-games", which honestly was the only word that I could recognized from the whole thing. And then it all began, I was learning 3D, getting to know people that do that for a living and it blew my mind.
I think all started when I was a kid, I have always been involved with art, my mom said that I used to play with clay, puzzles, painting and drawing. But, when I was 9 years old, I used to play video games with my cousin everyday after school. Guitar Hero, Resident evil 4 and God of war, made me feel that this was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. Also all the animated movies of that time, I was a little curious about how they were made.
