Modeling allows me to create complete universes. Creating visually stunning and surprising images with a strong storytelling is what guides me through the creation. I am intent to work in an endless quest in order to learn and discover new things.

Since I was 12 years old

I realised I wanted to work in entertainment since I was a kid, watching trailers of video games and all kinds of movie. I've started to draw very young and never stopped. That's why I got involved in creating images after high school starting in an art school before turning to a special effects school.

I first started my studies in Literature. It was very nice to express myself and to create new worlds, but words aren’t really my thing. ⠀ So I studied Graphic Design in Paris during three years. One day, I discovered ARTFX school, where you can learn VFX and more. It was a revelation for me, and my first reaction to that was Holy*!t it is possible to work on movies ! This day I new this was what I wanted to do ! Working in movies and making people dream like I dreamt before. ⠀

I realised I wanted to work in visual effects around my 16th year but it has been a slow and growing thought

I was interested by the VFX industry since I was in high school That’s why I decided to study at ARTFX to improve my skills and to realize my dream to work on big movies

I started having a strong interest in history very early, along with movies and video games. I felt the need to draw what I read or saw in documentaries, and loved creating real or fictitious universes. I then discovered 3D softwares which were fantastic tools to create what I had in my head. I then decided to make that passion my job, so here I am today!

At first I would like to find an art school and then I discover artfx that push me and help me to pursue my career in Vfx. When I was a child I loved to draw and the photography, that's why I choose the way of art in vfx.

I always drew since I was little, creating stories and worlds. When I saw Avatar I was amazed by its planet and creatures, that's where I discovered the power and freedom you get with CG. Being able to create completely imaginary worlds and make it seems real is really what drove me into the creative media and entertainment industry.

I've always be facinated by vfx . When I was a child, I loved to create and draw all the ideas that came to my mind. Then when I was a teenager, I started to take my first steps in 3d by creating buildings, houses and villas. And now I'm passionate about creating photorealistic environments.

I was always drawing when I was younger so before my bachelor, I knew that the animation industry was something that will suit me. During my first post-bachelor year, in a preparatory year for entries in Art Schools, I discover the VFX industry along with the Animation industry and after gathering informations on both of them, I choosed the VFX industry as I found it more versatile and intriguing.

I realized I wanted to work in the visual effects industry when I was thirteen years old, during an internship in an architecture company. One of my first mission was to model the interior of an appartment using sketchup and I enjoyed it so much that I started to do my own models after school and on the week-ends. At first I was just doing it for fun, but when Blur released Star Wars The old Republic's cinematic in 2009, I remembered saying to myself: "This is what I want to do with my life."

Hi, I'm Aaron Dubois I discovered the passion for 3D since my first study at the Haute Ecole Albert Jacquard (Namur, Belgium). Finished in 2019 with high distinction, I continue my journey at ARTFX to deepen my knowledge. Determine and convinced that 3D is my way, I do all my possible to improve my skills, I completed my master in FX artist with my graduation movie Nellie bly.

I was very young, around 12 or 13, when I found out that I really wanted to be "the magician" behind the scenes of the films I saw at that age. Still today, even being aware of all the cutting edge technology involved, I still surprise myself forgetting all of that for the beauty of the images, because in the end, that is what matters the most.

My interest in photography and motion pictures started when I was 12 and over the years evolved and included Digital Painting, CG and VFX images/videos. Thanks to that, I ended up at ArtFX at 18 years old.

I've been drawing since I was a little kid, but I realized I wanted to make visual effects around 16-17 years old. I was super curious about how to make the effects I saw in the movies I wanted to be a part of it !

I always loved playing video games and creating things on my computer, beside my highschool education. I decided to leave my scientist path to learn digital creation.

I am passionate about 3D since I was 16 years old when i tried out of curiosity a 3D software for the first time by following some tutorials. Since then i always wanted to learn more and more about anything related to the 3D and VFX industry.

I was a creative person all my life, choosing drawing to any other activities,but I decided in some point in my life to follow different path and to go to law university, and after finishing my master degree in law , I realized that I will never be happy with what I chooses as future life path, and if I don’t follow a child dream I will do huge mistake,so I left my country and I started over in art industry,and I am sure for all this years I am not doing job but a pure pleasure for soul as job.

My first job as a student was during the year 2021/2022 for a period of 6 months where I did many tasks such as modeling, concept, environment and many other things that touch the world of 3D and VFX

I was not a big Harry Potter fan like other 'Potterheads' but one of my friends was, so she always used to talk about Harry Potter , that got me interested to watch HP series, then after watching it, i was fascinated by the scale of sets and the creatures like dragons, house elves, etc., then i searched about BTS of the HP series, and found out that maximum times, it were set extensions and people sitting in front of screens doing effects.., that got me interested in Animation and VFX.
