Uncover Hidden Talent: Hire the World’s Top New Digital Artists
Hello! Welcome to my Portfolio website! My name is Nizar Zoubir and i'm 23 years old. I'm a big tech fan, especially about the CGI/VFX Industry. Since like many others, I always liked watching movies and playing video games, and I've embarked myself on the quest of becoming a VFX artist. I'm currently at my last year of education at VFX Workshop in Paris, and I'm looking for an internship/job after my graduation.
When I was 16 years old, I realized that I was in love with movies, then I decided to work in the Cinema Industry. I searched which part of the process was suited for me, and i found VFX. After one year at Vfx-Workshop, it's 2020 today, I'm sure about what I want to do, and it's CG hair and fur. It's really interesting how nature works and why does hair or fur grow a certain way.
I have started doing small video edits when I was about 12, after seeing the first Avengers movie. I was amazed at what I saw and I immediately wanted to learn how effects like the ones we see in the movie are achieved. I started with lightsabers, making them with LS Saber and later on After Effects. I grew confident enough to seriously start 3D in 2020. I then joined VFX-Workshop in 2021.
Raised by huge movie watcher parents, I attended an audiovisual option in high school as hobby, but then I understood that i wanted to learn, create and share ideas and projets my whole life. Nothing more important exist for me than loving what I do every day, this is for what I work hard and fight for. The creative media and entertainment industry was an obvious choice after years of search about my objectives and interest in life.
When I was a kid, I first wanted to be a magician, then an inventor. Ever since I discovered CGI, it felt like becoming both. For many years I've watched movies, and really enjoyed the ones with special effects in it, especially horror movies. I admire the filmmakers that dare to make us travel through their technical achievements. It became obvious to make a living out of it: it is the best of both worlds; living for my passion, and living from my passion.
Since I was about 11 years old, I wanted to link art and technology. At first, I thought of becoming an architect, such is the dream of many young people when they do not yet know many trades. In high school, I was more interested in image, so I turned to applied arts at first and then specialized in graphic design. During these years, I developed an attraction for 3D and special effects. That's how I found myself in this field, an exciting universe linking art and technique.
