Uncover Hidden Talent: Hire the World’s Top New Digital Artists
Ever since I was 5 I have been playing video games non-stop never realizing until recently that you could actually make it your everyday life. So whilst I was pondering the decision about becoming a CFO I tested what video game programming & development would be like by buying a game dev computer & downloading Unity. I had the program downloaded at about 5pm & stayed up till 3am & have never looked back. This is exactly where I want to be. This is exactly what I want to do.
I have always had a huge interest for design, art and architecture and had it close to my heart. 2 years ago I started my journey when I decided to go for my dream to do what I love and change my career. I then found YRGO and Architectural Visualisation which felt like the perfect match. After one year of home studies I successfully updated my grades and was able to apply to follow my dream. When I finally got accepted total happiness was a fact, knowing I get to follow my new path.
Ten years ago I was dead set on a career in illustrating, specifically child book illustrating. But I ended up working as an interior designer and after a few years I realized that I wanted to do more of visualisation and illustration. I found the YRGO architectural visualisation course and I knew I found my perfect match.
I love being creative and after a long period of working in retail and home decor I figured out that I want to inspire people in a early stage. Making an interesting and selling environment in the store got me to think why not do this with images instead. So here I am, ready to start a new phase in my career.
I studied a Bachelor in Construction & Real Estate. I loved the industry of Architecture but always felt that I wanted to be more creative. After two years as a Residential Designer I decided to focus entirely on creating interesting & attractive environments and how to communicate their value to society.
I have since a young age been interest in photography and have since then know that I somehow wanted to work with imagery. When I first heard about the Architecture visualisation education at Yrgo I immediately knew that was what I wanted to do. Now, one year in, I know that I made the right descionion! I love the combination between technique, creativity and design.
I have allways liked working with shapes and colours. In high school I studied media and my subjects were photography and graphic design. I studied further to work as a florist. I enyoyed the creativity in working with flowers, but I wanted to try something new after six years in the business. I wanted to go back and work with the computer as a tool but still be creative. I found Archviz and as my interests are in photo, editing, interior design and architecture it was a perfect match!
I always liked to be creative, studied interior design in college and got an internship at an architecture and interior company, but due to certain circumstances I never got the chance to actually work in that field. After I moved to Sweden I found a program that teaches Architectural Visualization and realized that this what I want to do.
As a child of about ten years of age, building scale model diorama's, practicing weathering techniques, competing with guys six or seven times older (at IPMS) and being obsessed with architecture, it was clear that I wanted to immerse myself in the world's architectural pursuits and make a name for myself.
I always enjoyed being creative in different ways but when I got a job as an interior stylist almost two years ago I realised for the first time that I was actually good at it and that I had an eye for design. Last spring I Stumbled upon the arch viz education here in Gothenburg whilst searching for courses involving design and such. Decided to try it out and realised just after a few weeks that this is something really special and something I love doing! https://aliciasundell.com/
