Uncover Hidden Talent: Hire the World’s Top New Digital Artists
I've have been some what artistic growing up, but really neglected the talent. I wasn't seriously into art until years later when I was starting to transition out of the military. During that chapter in my life, I was becoming super depressed and turned to playing a lot of Destiny. After a while, I really started to feel that "want" to better my artistic skills and get into creating things for games. About a year after being out of the military I decieded to take that dive into digital art.
A love of film and story telling for me starts with picking up the book, Behind the Scenes or perhaps it was making of... the empire strikes back, in the 90s as a kid at a library where my Mom encouraged me to find a book to read while she studied her own books and interests. This was the only thing star wars I saw, and while the complexity of the text was a bit beyond me, the pictures where inspiring in a age before the Internet was so common and necessary with things like YouTubes to show us.
I had a realization that i wanted to do Fx when i saw the first Iron Man in 2008. I didn't act on it because there are always people around you influencing you to play safe than heading on directly on what you wanted to do, so i enrolled in something closer to it and something that made sense at the time, that would maybe help me pursue my goal which was working in the Entertainment Industry and it surely did! Here i am living in a day and age where a mere code can change the whole ordeal.
I first realized I wanted to work in the creative media and entertainment industry when I started streaming on twitch in 2015. I had always been into graphics art and sketching, allowing me to explore a greater reach of like-minded people. This turned into a passion of me going to school for digital film and then learning how to become a 3-D artist for visual effects in cinema.
