Since i was little ive always wanted to be part of the creative media. I directed my studies in digital animation into movies and cartoons but at the end of my studies y decided to enter Vertex School and move to the videogame creation path. Im currently grwing as an environment artist in the Studio Rexcore in Mexico looking to enter a big studio and work in AAA games.

I've always had an interest in video games. My realization came into focus when I started to dabble in making 3d models. I eventually started surrounding myself and talking to people who were novices and pros and found a passion for it. I'm pretty deep into it, and always interested in learning from people and talking about the future of art technology.

I realized I wanted to work in creative media and entertainment as a kid, captivated by movies , TV, and games. Experimenting with graphics software strengthened my skills, and once I began taking digital media production courses it cemented my passion. Since then, I've worked hard to build my skills and create a portfolio of work that showcases my talent.

I realized I wanted to become a 3D Character artist around 2016 after I graduated from my Community College with really not too much of a path and not even a portfolio that can be used in this industry. I have changed that fate. It is a path I want to walk with no regret not doing it later in my life. Every since then, I have been working hard to break into the industry and learning from literally everyone and anyone. I believe learning from multiple sources can offer different viewpoints.

When I was younger I would always have stack of paper and a pencil and just go to town. As I got older I was still working on my own characters thinking I would bring them to life through animation. But I just never knew how to do so. One day I saw an add for Full Sail and I gave them a call one thing led to another and that was the start of my interest in the entertainment industry through character art.

3D Character Artist and Game Developer. Creator of Crumbling World.

I worked as a videographer for many years and decided to make a shift into game development.

Ever since I started drawing when I was young, I always wanted to strive to work in the creative industry.

I am a professional 3D Visualizer in Architecture with several years of experience

I studied computer systems engineering. In my last year of study, when I was doing my professional internship, I realized that programming codes and codes without a graphical interface was not for me. I looked at the professionals in the industry and said "I don't want this for my life." I pulled out of my closet a wacom that I bought in 2014 and never used an took Concept Art classes. My mind totally changed.I found MY PASSION. Since that day, I have not stopped.

In 2017 I moved to New York at 25 years old and suddenly realized that if I put enough determination, I could learn the Games Arts. So, I started learning with YouTube videos but still, I was not sure about the role and path I was taking. So, in March 2020, I started Vertex School and now I'm becoming an Environment Artist. Now I work as an Artist at Cyan Worlds Inc.

I realized I wanted to work in the Game and VFX industry in 2018 when I saw my friend doing some programming stuff and he suggested I try to make games with him.

Ever since I played Uncharted 4 I was amazed by how beautifully real game worlds could be. That then lead me to discover Horizon Zero Dawn, and the list goes on. I was halfway through my Architecture course at the time (I have since graduated and left it behind). The common thread between games and architecture was 3D modeling - the one aspect of the course that I genuinely enjoyed.

My passion and my love for games since childhood I have been playing PlayStation since its release in 1994 and has grown up and has concluded games on YouTube. I have a channel called Arqfarasha.

I first got hooked on CGI as a youngster creating text scene files for POVRay to render on my Dad's PC. I loved it as it combined my passions for technology and creativity. Since then, despite having a career as a software developer, my interest in the field has never gone away. I've continued to study and practice in my own time, building a breadth of knowledge across software packages. In October 2022, I joined Vertex School on their Game Artist program.

I am an illustration graduate with a First Class Honours Degree. I am currently studying with Vertex School based in California. I am enrolled onto the Environment Artist for games track. I'm based in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK. I have worked on a multitude of commission projects both local and international and have also exhibited in art shows in the Ouseburn area of Newcastle. -

When i was a child people use to told me that i had a lot of fantasy. Since the time of the high school, i understand that i love to create and focus my attention on making really good piece of art, and i wanted to combine that with one of the biggest passion of my life: videogames. That passion, trought the years, leaded me on my first works into the world of 3d

Gaming is part of my life, and I'm exciting to be part of the production of games! I've been an interior designer for 5 years, and now I'm pivoting my career to the game industry. My previous career experience provides the foundation of actual world building knowledge, which helps me understand digital world building better.

I was always interested in arts and 3D works since quite my early years. I started learning 3D back in 2010. Now, my sole aim and interest is to emerge out as a very good Character Artist.

I have been a contemporary artist for the past decade (Sculpture, undergraduate) and whilst I have always loved and played games I did not really ever consider myself capable of making them, just purely from a technical standpoint. I went to a game jam in 2014 that opened my eyes to game development, even if I was terrible :P, but that was an important experience and I loved it! Since then my fine art practice became more and more digital, resulting in a split-screen game for my masters thesis.

This has always been the path I wanted to go into, I took a digital visualization course in high school and was hooked. Life happened and ultimately I had to forge a different path, but now I am back to working on this dream!

Since I was a kid I always know that I want to work in Creative industries, I was passionate with drawing while being a kid and after discover the animated series ''Beware the Batman'' I know that I wanted to be a 3d Artist and wanted to work in Game/VFX industry. I attempted College, did a Bachelor at UQAC-NAD and also a Mentorship at Vertex School INC to pursue my dream carreer
