After I realized that there has to be someone who made all these cool games and movies, I thought maybe I can do this as well.

I have been drawing since I was a child and always wanted to turn my hobby into a profession. I am a very creative person and enjoy working with different materials and programmes. However, I am still a beginner and want to learn many things.

Just as every other child, I really enjoyed playing in imaginary worlds, defeating dragons with sticks and living in castles made of sheets. But as I grew older there were still stories to be told and worlds to be built, so when I found out there was an industry that allowed me to live out those fantasies, I knew I wanted to be part of it! That much I owed to my younger self.

Since I was a teenager Ive always wanted to get into game development and started to work on games while at school. During that time I started focussing more and more on 3d and recently enrolled in a Uni in the field.

After i studied business administration for 2 weeks...

Since my 6th grade when I had to do a flip book for a school project I started to get interest in Animation. Later on I discovered the 3D world and tested/evolved myself to be better.

Since I was a kid playing pokémon and watching Disney and Pixar movies

I really can't tell. What i remember is watching animated Music videos or Animes over and over, and I just wanted to create something just like this. The passion for 3D animation came much later, when I attendet a class in college. This is what fueled my passion.

I've been playing games, drawing and creating things all my live and started taking it seriously after graduating high school. My initial goal was to get a computer science degree and then get an art degree afterwards, but after spending some time in computer science I've decided that I want to instead pursue a creative degree right away.

I always had a passion for drawing and design, but I didn't know where to go. The first model I did in University was a Sculpey model. At that point I found my love for 3D models and decided to go in that direction. Coupled with my interest and love for games, I found my calling.

That's easy: I wanted to become a physician and I wanted to see some nice explosions. But real life explosions are a bit boring or extremely terrifying (they are both! ). Thus I searched a lot for movie explosions and voilà here we are : 10ths grade Lukas, the little weird kid, discovers Blender 3D and gets into VFX and compositing.
