Creating has been an interest of mine ever since I was little. I've always enjoyed making things for myself and others, especially drawings. Having a family member that worked briefly in illustration I knew from a young age that art could be more than a hobby. Always coming up with stories and characters to draw, seeing those characters like mine animated onscreen sparked a desire to work in art and entertainment.

Desde criança vendo filmes e jogando pelos computadores, sempre me interessei por jogos e como são feitos e minha paixão sempre foram cenários e objetos de cena.

I was tired of my routine, that's when I saw a video of melies college, I found something so incredible, that even without knowing anything about this profession, I decided to learn because I really like it

Only after my Architecture and Urban Design graduation I could find out my passion in digital game art. And then, I started a postgraduation in Digital Game Art at Méliès College (Faculdade Méliès) in 2021.

I have always wondered about the development of games and series that I follow, I immersed myself in research and interviews with people in the area, through these references this desire to study about it increased. Today I feel it was the best decision I could have made, because doing what you love is the best thing in the world ;)

When i was just a child, and i discovered all those softwares and awesome schools, besides the college im currently studing in.

Working in the entertainment industry has always been my goal since childhood.

when i was 12 years old (im 18 now) i started making some photoshops just for having fun,after that i started learning more about more about this area, started editing some videos,learning new stuffs, until a found 3d softwares, when i realize that i want to do this for the rest of my life

I first realized I wanted to work in the creation of media around my first year of high-school, though I didn't pursue it in earnest until around my third year of college (majoring in a different field). Then with my resolve steeled I left my former college and decided to finally pursue a career in the entertainment industry with all the effort I can muster.

I always thought about creating things but onde day I was drinking a cup of coffee with my beloved then I realized that I really want to work with design and entertainment industry.

I first realised I wanted to work with creative media 2 years ago. I always loved drawing, games, comics and movies, but I never really entertained the idea of working with those things. After I finished my master's degree in metallurgical engineering I found out about Blender, 3D modelling and 3D sculpting and I immediatelly loved it. After some months studying with youtube and udemy tutorials, I am back to college studying 3D animation at Faculdade Mélìes to change careers and do what I love.

In the middle of 2018 (i guess) when i started a course of drawing and visual development of character. I saw people actually teaching and making money with something I always enjoyed doing in my free time--to tell stories--, so it was probably then when i realized creative media could be a path for me to follow.

Since I was a kid I was passionate about films and games. After high school, I ended up going to a Film School and spend the next 13 years working with production for features, documentaries, series, TV and branded content. Having worked on projects in Brazil, the USA, Canada, Sweden, Chile and Argentina.

I have always loved animation films and video games, since I was little I was always curious about how games and films were made

I realized that my career as an artist started when I talked to my psychologist, and a while later with the IT guy who worked at the company where I worked. They make me see that I was wasting my time working at that company. And most of all, my brother and cousins. They have a company named "Vida de Motion", and they helped me to started my carrer at 3D Animation and Motion Designer, when I left the other company.

I realized that i want to work with creative media when i had my first contact with 3D in a short boot camp.

I always wanted to work with 3D, because of films and animations it was always a passion

I always wanted to work with art using digital methods, CGI just fits in my life perfectly! :)

I always loved playing games, watching movies and doing some art, so i always wanted to work in entertainment industry :)

When I was a kid I liked to play with my toys and make videos in stop motion (although at the time I didn't know what I was doing) and when I grew up, I saw that this could be a career, and here I am!

I did realise that I want to work in the creative media and entertainment industry, when I saw that I could transform the world and the place around me through of the my art . I know that living with art in my country is not a ''good alternative'', but I' m trying to maintain in order my mental health and my finacerial live, to do something that revolutionizes the world.
