About me
Hi,
Games, films and special effects has always been an essential part of me, therefore I choose my career in media technology. My education has thought me both the technical and the artistic disciplines of applications and films. The main focus was animation and modelling and 3D graphics. In addition to my main program, I took a course that lasted throughout a year to master the essence of documentary filming, since photography is a huge passion of mine. I have also been taken several courses where I worked with Maya and Unity. For example I created a hair simulator with the Maya API by using MEL and Python script, a fish animation with a rigid-body and joints and did a light show for a Dome Cinema. I have also been working with modelling, animation and rendering in both Maya and 3ds, both high and low polymodeling and UV mapping. Used Final Cut Pro X, Apple Motion, Adobe Premiere, Adobe After Effects, Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator extensively. With a good eye for light, shades and colour.
I have a close relationship to sports, since I was an elite hockey player until 20 years of age. Unfortunately I had to stop playing because of hockey related injuries. The hockey however shaped me to the person I am today, a team player, competitive and not satisfied until everything is perfect. I developed great communication skills when I was the captain for my team and a hockey teacher at a hockey camp for youngsters. My master thesis also thought me to be independent in my work and the cultural differences between countries.
Hopefully you could see me with big potential of becoming an essential part of your future with communication skills which is influenced by both the artistic and technical.
I am looking forward to hear from you!
Best Regards
Gustav Zaphf
