Uncover Hidden Talent: Hire the World’s Top New Digital Artists
I always knew that I wanted to dedicate myself to something related to art but it was not until after finishing high school that I decided to take the plunge and follow my dreams, leaving aside the opinions of others that in a certain way influenced me, but this also made me find other things that I like, now I can make use of art to communicate to the world all that completely different knowledge that I obtained.
I have always enjoyed drawing and creating my own stories from a very young age, and making art in the future was always in the back of my mind. However I didn't start thinking about it as a career option until I was around 15 years old. It was then that I saw a short documentary that was airing on TV of the making of an animated movie, and seeing the behind the scenes of it all really inspired me to work towards becoming a part of the animation industry.
I was first an IT Engineering student but I got too burnt out from that. After a year of hiatus, I decided that I wanted to follow my true passion and enrolled as a Video Game Designer student. Up until this point, I've been passionate about my projects and I've been developing for the past 4 years. I decided that I wanted to mix both of my passions (music and video games) and I've decided that, in the near future, I'll be developing the music for each and everyone of my projects.
Throughout my life, I always loved discovering and developing new creative outputs, but the one I was most attracted to was animation, so after high school, the choice for me was pretty clear. But even after studying animation, I'm still interested in other creative fields like programming, music, cinematography, photography...
I have known since I was a child that I wanted to do cinema and, more specifically, animation. I started animating in flipbooks and soon digital art caught my attention. Now, I know that is the path I want to take. I have studied four years of an Animation Degree at UTAD and have developed three amateur short films, as well as directed 'Ciao Peskao', a short made by an eight people team as our final assingment for college.
