Who are you at the agency and what do you do?
In the agency I hold the position of 3D designer. I transfer ideas, physical objects and drawings to the monitor screen.
What does it look like in a nutshell?
After accurately defining the needs of the client, I prepare an outline of activities. Often I first collect materials that are helpful in this process (e.g. I photograph the object I am going to model from each side and size it to a real scale). The most time-consuming stage is usually the modeling itself. I choose
the right materials and lighting - and so the shadows, reflections and roughness of the design appear. And the magic begins! And the modeled chair, remote control or lamp are becoming more and more real. The last step is to select the right frame and... click the render button. The computer recalculates everything and presents the finished effect: either static graphics or animation.
Why do you do what you do?
After a whole day in front of the screen, I can spend hours at the computer learning something new. Probably specialists in work ergonomics would tell me
What do you think about it:Laughter: Why? If only to... know. Therefore, answering your question: I think for development. And that's a plus for me. Customers too — because I can offer them more and more interesting and tailored solutions. What I like about 3D graphics is that there are no limits to it. The only thing that can limit is skills, which is why I continue to develop. When I need something very unusual — say, a beer opener in the shape of a lawnmower with the inscription “For Dad” — I will most likely not find it in any of the available photo banks. For that, I can create it from scratch. Exactly as I imagine him.
What motivates you?
“Wow, we take!” on the other side of the screen. Of course: whether a 3D design is better or flat depends on how and where you want to use it. However, I noticed that when customers see their product in such a realistic version, and not just in the form of a flat image, they react more enthusiastically. What's your story? There will be no drama and twists here — rather stubbornness and fixation. It is true that I am a graphic designer by education, but in practice I was a graphic designer much earlier than on paper. In high school — and I went to computer science school — I had constant access to computers during the lessons. I was constantly getting attention from teachers for dealing with graphics instead of the tasks they gave me. That's why passion became my job very naturally — both in agencies and freelancing. Today I combine one with the other.
What are you passionate about?
Any activity that allows you to regenerate the body after long hours of work in front of the computer - especially cycling or climbing. No audiobooks.
I consume them in large quantities, fantasy and reportage reign. They are also appreciated by my cat, Pablo — a nasty creature of which I am a huge fan:laughs again:
You and your work in 3 words are...
It may not be three words, but certainly looking for solutions, creating something from scratch. And the satisfaction that comes from it.
