✉️ For any business inquiries, email me at [email protected] 👋 Hi there!

Here's what I do in 𝟯 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗽𝘀:

1. 𝗣𝗶𝘅𝗲𝗹 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗿𝘆 - I have both a background in film principal photography where I've found an incredibly deep love for lighting, camera sensor technology and lenses. Combined with a new passion for digital imagery which has elevated me into working as a digital compositor, VFX-artist and 3D-generalist that makes me push my boundaries for what images I c

an output for projects - regardless if they're shot on a cinema camera or captured on a digital cine camera in Unreal Engine 5.

2. 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆 - Years of analyzing content, doing marketing studies and workshops from the likes of Meta, Snapchat, Google and LinkedIn has made me really learn all the ins and outs of the psychology and tactics behind audience behavior, consumer cycles in marketing campaigns and distribution of a film or commercial project.

3. 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗯𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 - There's no point in knowing strategies if you can't put them into practice. That's why I'm also experienced in distribution of content using paid social on SoMe ad platforms such as Meta, Google Ads, TikTok, but also non paid organic using growth hacking techniques fully utilizing each platforms full potential. An example of this is currently growing my own Youtube channel focused on 3D and VFX tutorials.

What you're seeing is 𝗻𝗼𝘁 AI, it's UE5—However!

The best quote I've heard about AI is "not using it as a tool, rather as a collegue". One practical approach to this was I wanted to create a vintage 90s sportscar, but I didn't want a real world brand/model.

1. I started by chatting with Google Gemini about what defined iconic 90s sportscar design, shared some of my favorites, and asked it to help craft a detailed image prompt for Google Whisk.
2. After a few iterations, Whisk delivered a 4-split orthographic concept I really liked.
3. I fed those images into Hunyuan 3D 2.0, a free AI-based 3D generator, which gave me a detailed 3D sketch of the car in minutes.
4. I imported the FBX into Blender and manually retopologized
it using Retopoflow 3.
5. With Gemini’s earlier design suggestions in mind, I added more custom touches via traditional 3D modeling.
6. I named my fictional car brand Raccoon—partly because I love raccoons, partly because the dark headlight design reminded me of one.
7. Finally, I brought it all into Unreal Engine 5.6, shaded it using Epic Games’s Automotive Materials pack, and rendered it with Lumen + Raytracing.

All-in-all, I didn’t use AI to generate a 3D car—I co-created with it. Through a back-and-forth process, I gained insights into what made 90s sportscars so iconic, received tailored references based on my taste, and got help in areas I might have struggled with alone. The result: a fully optimized, high-quality 3D model ready for Unreal Engine 5.

WIP and the power of previz in a real-time cinematic renderer like Unreal Engine 5. I wanted to share some progress on my weekend project. Recently, I was inspired by a video that emphasized "Don't be afraid to show the process and unfinished work, instead of waiting to release everything at once." This approach is not what I did with my previous Need for Speed animated film, so I thought I'd try that now. In the image below you can see v001 renders with the 𝘭𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘴𝘵 settings (no AA, 1 sample for RT etc) so I could do an offline edit and the quality you get with the lowest quality settings is.. great—to say the least. 😀

Additionally, I came across another inspiring video made by Karim Yasser that encouraged me to rethink my lighting approach. The idea to "paint with lights" for each camera setup—focusing on lighting individual parts of the frame rather than treating the scene as a whole. It's a simple concept in hindsight, but one I hadn’t fully explored in my CG work until now.

In the image below, I used lots of multiple spawnable lights for each shot to emphasize specific details.

30 🎈 Thank you so much to those who wished me a happy birthday, I had not only an amazing day, but an amazing weekend! Emilia had planned a surprise adventure and over the course of wonderful 5 days I got to see some beautiful views in Switzerland, take a short swim in the Mediterranean sea and go millionaire car-spotting in Monaco. France and Monaco was great, but Switzerland was just something else. The bluest water I've seen in my life and the vibe was just so pure and welcoming. 🇨🇭 is the best present I've gotten in life. ❤️

It's easy to miss 😩 But — I just couldn't miss out on the Indie Bundle deal pushed recently, so yesterday I finally received my first very own motion capture suit, complete with hand tracking gloves too. It's too early to know, but honestly, I think this will probably be the importance equivalent to cameras for me to tell stories going forward. In both CG and live action filmmaking 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 are always the most important part of a story. Now I can not only capture visuals of characters, but also the motions of characters. I feel so inspired and motivated knowing what's possible with these tools. This video is my first time in the suit and my first test capture. It's also one of the most cringe improves I've ever made hahah. 🥴
