About me

June 14, 2010 0

$\"\"$ I am a 3d animator, with 20 years working in the field of 3d animation. So far I\’ve worked on 16 video-game projects of which 12 have shipped.

Since September 2006, I am working in the Montreal video-games hub, where I\’ve worked on several cool games like

$\"Tomb$ Tomb Raider (Muliplayer) (ps3, xbox360, pc),

$\"Prince$ Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands (ps3, xbox360, pc) or

$\"Far$ Far Cry 2 (ps3, xbox360, pc).

Before that, I was Lead Artist and Sr. Animator at Rockstar Vienna, where I\’ve worked on projects like the xbox version of

$\"GTA$ GTA Double Pack (Grand Theft Auto 3 and Vice City) or

$\"Max$ the console version of Max Payne 2.

I\’ve originally started out my career as an engineer doing pcbd routing, 2d and 3d CAD modeling for the design of high-tech electronic products $\"Coffee$ . After doing this for almost five years, I had the urge to transition into more artistic fields and went back to college. I\’ve studied multimedia arts and specialized in 3d animation. My graduation work was a 3d animated short movie about two flies and a pizza, which I\’ve finished together with a co-student and good friend of mine in spring of 2000. This short then helped me to get my first paid character animator job, working on a cinema advertising spot – bringing a croissant to life which was stealing coffee (see image to the right).
