My goal is to find a job in the CG industry, either as a 3D Generalist or an Animator. Although my dream is to work as an animator for a feature film, I will be happy to work in any creative area: films, games, adverts… as long as I do what I like (3D). The […]
I am interested in working as a 3D Generalist so I have decided that having just a showreel might not be enough for the positions I am planning to apply for.
