Experience
Passions
I'm a senior Nuke compositor working in Montreal. After studies in graphic design and working 16 years as a self-employed 3d generalist in Switzerland for brands like Chopard, Rolex, Novartis and Nestle. In 2015, I felt it was time to discover new horizons working in big studios like MPC, CineSite and FrameStore. I'm currently working at CineSite Montreal, as a lookDev Lead artist on a feature animation project for Disney+.
Cooking, drawing, digital art, moving pictures, electronic, cryptos and technology are my main passions and I spend a lot of time sharing those passions with my three kids. Late 2021 I discovered NFTs and I immediately felt in love with the medium to spread my art.
NFT Projects
those are some collections I'm working on
SPROGS
TO THE MOON
CRYPTO SUGAR SKULLZ
An NFT project for Kids charities. This one was my first NFT generative project and I directly felt in love with the tech and process. It started with a Sunday fun project, by drawing a base character in illustrator and adding accessories. 10K 2D sprogs were generated and are available on the Polygon blockchain. A second 3d version will follow
As a vfx artist, the Melies imagery, the anthropomorphic moon face is something that I always have in my mind when I hear To the Moon ! I think this simple phrase represents the CryptoBoom of 2017 with all their hopes to become a millionaire the next day. The idea with this NFTserie is to link famous characters related to a project, a product or anything that could have an importance in their life.
Second generative collection to be released soon. The challenge here is to generate a collection with 10K unique animated looping skulls. Will be available on 9th April 2022 on the ETH/Polygon Blockchain
