Hi everyone, I'm new here and I'd like to get to know people. So thanks to the people who have already connected and I hope I will get in touch with a even more folks. I might be a bit the odd one out but I don't mind. I'm a software developer trying to get his foot in the door in visual effects. After years of hesitating I finally took the plunge and did an intensive online course in 3D VFX at Escape Studios. Currently working on my showreel. As a profession I want to build software for CG artists so they can have more intuitive tools, focus on artistic results and not have to repeat an action umpty times. Technical stuff is just my strongest point, being an engineer, and I love to figure out how to solve a problem. Nevertheless I'd like to get some experience as an artist and have a creative outlet on the side. I'm mainly here to learn about film, animation and storytelling. Other interests are reading, drawing, painting and photography. Hope to talk soon.

Ah, good to see a fellow countryman and even a fellow alumnus :-)
Thank you Laurel! Ours is a dark art, lol. I like CGI best when you can barely notice it, blending perfectly into real footage, for example recreating environments in a period film when it's hard to it on location, my favorite example usually being The King's Speech.
Welcome to Stage 32, Johan!
