Uncover Hidden Talent: Hire the World’s Top New Digital Artists
I am self-learner basically, made a degree in philology and worked for certain time as translator, but then I realized that I want to work in creative field. Since then I have been learning constantly, taking many online and offline courses which altogether helped me a lot to grow professionally. I’ve started my creative path from graphic design and layout design and developed into motion designer and animator. I’ve got fascinated by 3D animation the most and realized that's what I want to do.
Growing up, my dad would always tell me that I got my creative gene from my grandpa. Because just like him, I would always be doodling or creating something. I realized that as I grew up, I always prefered to watch animated content over life-action ones. Just the fact that people like me could breathe life into these characters and tell meaningful stories that resonated with me felt almost like a super power that I wanted to be able to do too.
In 7th grade I had taken a short summer course making 2D platformers. It was fairly basic, but I had a lot of fun. I was studying to be a Real Estate agent for sometime, but I was growing bored of the course work and I wasn't excited about my future. I was in a game store in Edmonton looking at all the collectibles and games when I realized that I wasn't on the path I was passionate about. When I came back to Vancouver, I switched gears completely and committed myself to learning Game Dev.
Art has always been apart of my life, however when I made the switch from traditional painting to digital sculpting, I realized how much more there is to it! After completing my studies at Vancouver Institute of the Media Arts with a degree in Game Art and Design, I realized becoming a 3D Character Artist was my new dream.
I decided I really wanted to get into the games or animation industry when I was around 22 years old, I got a bit into 3D art and then just kept going, the more I learn to do and the better I get the more I realize that I'm still new and have a lot to learn so I think getting into the entertainment industry would not only be satisfying but also challenging and I'm all for it!
During my bachelors, a friend introduced me to Blender. I fell in love with it , I spent hours learning the fundamentals of the 3D pipeline - Modelling, Texturing, Lighting, and Rendering. I updated all my works in my Artstaion profile. A profound VFX studio in India reached out to me through Artstation to hire me for a film project. That's when I realized I am ready to work in the creative media and entertainment industry.
A year. ago I started to feel very unfulfilled in my job as a power engineer. I was told many times over that I have great attention to detail. Being told that, sparked something in me. After getting laid off due to a global pandemic, I decided to learn photoshop in my free time. that quickly spiralled into me joining the school for graphic design. Through that, I developed a great passion for art and design. In all forms of media. 2D ard 3D art, and vector art. I am new but filled with passion.
