Uncover Hidden Talent: Hire the World’s Top New Digital Artists

In year 10, I realized I loved making games and wanted to learn by taking a TAFE course to see if I enjoyed the process and found out I loved learning 3D modeling so after school I went straight to uni to learn more and here I am!

I think my love for creativity began as a child, however towards the end of my high school years is when I knew Film and Visual Effects was the pathway I wanted to explore more. With a strong passion and interest in the creation of films and the process in which visual effects are created, exploring and shifting my education and development in this direction was a great decision.

I realised I wanted to work in this industry when I was presented the opportunity to create a short film in my final year of high school for my major project.

I first became interested in the VFX industry after seeing online communities and the amazing art people were creating with 3D programs. I really enjoy the challenge of working through problems along with the continuous learning that the field provides.

I have always been creative, I got to chance to express my drawing capabilities when I was studying 2D animation in my bachelors degree (Communication Design), and I loved it so much I built a folio of my 2D work and decided to expand my knowledge in a 3D Visual Effects course at Rising Sun Pictures, I knew from pursuing my passion in art over the last 4 years, that the media entertainment industry would be most suited for me to express my creative flair :)

When I was around 16 after completing a cert 3 in media studies through highschool

From a young age I was interested in working in video games, that interest developed into an interest in visual effects as I became interested in video editing and production. I began messing around with Maya and the potential that I discovered lead me to VFX.

I initially wanted to get into game design, but once I started doing a few certificate courses in game design and visual effects, I quickly came to realize my love and passion for the visual effects industry

Growing up I was always loved films and developed a passion for camera aesthetics and techniques as I made my way through school. I started out as a photographer taking photos of landscapes and people at any given chance. After high school I completed a Bachelor of Media Arts and decided I wanted to become a Camera Operator for TV and Films.

I’ve always been involved with media since high school but only last few years have been highly interested in working in Visual Effects as jobs are open world wide including Australia to work on leading feature films such as Marvel. I’ve been training and learning the last 2 years to break into the VFX industry

When I was still studying in University of South Australia, Rising Sun Pictures was talking about how their visual effect working in their industry. After hearing that, I got interested with it because I love to watch many sci-fi movies when I was child. My first thing sci-fi movie was Star War: Revenge of the Sith. Therefore, I want to work in the creative media and entertainment industry that create more interesting effect on movies.

I have been drawing since I was little and am a very visual student in general. I grew up drawing traditional and currently learning digital and slowly improving. I had other career options I was interested in such as forensic science and medicine, however my passion for art was always greater.

I've always loved screen and media, from making my own shorts while growing up to experimenting in Adobe Creative Cloud once my high school obtained a license. My passion for art and design led me to enroll in Film and Television with the goal of studying at Rising Sun Pictures. I'm now in my final year of UniSA's new Bachelor of Visual Effects program, in partnership with Rising Sun Pictures, and I'm excited about making new connections and expanding my portfolio.

When i was a kid, a lot of movies inspired me, one in particular was Pixar's the Incredibles, i was a huge fan of superheroes and animation at the time (still a fan of animation) and the Incredibles in particular was amazing and really blew my mind. as i grew up i realized how revolutionary it was, with the many new simulations they created for the film and helped Pienaar future projects and for many and even inspired me to move further into the field of VFX.

I realized I wanted to work in the creative industries at a young age.

Since my childhood I always wanted to work in the film industry and discovered in recent years a passion for visual effects. I strongly believe that it's never late to pursue our dreams. Therefore, here I am.

After realising aviation wasn't the right industry for me, I turned to my video editing passions and from there, knew I wanted to be in the creative industry. A good friend of mine introduced me to the Bachelor of Film and TV course at UNISA Magill. Having the insight on what the course was about, I wasted no time at all applying for the course and pursuing visual effects.

From 3 years

When I was about 5 years old, I used to make animations on my computer using MS Paint and Windows Movie Maker on my Windows XP machine. Since then I've been fascinated with film making and particularly animation / VFX work.

I first realised I wanted to work in the creative industry after realising a love for creating films in high school and realising that working on films is a real possibility and would make for an exciting, fun job that I could enjoy doing every day.

I always had an interest in film growing up and knew that a creative career path was something I wished to explore. At first I was hesitant about proceeding toward a path in visual effects, as earlier on my eyes were focused on a more practical role in film making. As time passed however, I begun to develop a real interest in the VFX industry and its ever growing possibilities, an interest that was only heightened after joining the course offered at Rising Sun Pictures.

I have always been a creative person from a young age and took interest in film around the age of 11. I started filming short videos and editing them for fun and have had a passion ever since. However, I started to build a skill set for myself and a future career in my high school grade 10 digital media class.
