I have a clear plan for my future career. I am passionate about 3D animation and have been deeply studying it for three years. Therefore, my career goals are to become a 3D modeler or a 3D lighting and rendering artist. As graduation approaches, the pressure of job hunting is increasing. In the art industry, especially in 3D animation, having a strong portfolio is essential. Therefore, before starting my job search and submitting resumes, I created an animation-related portfolio to use for my future job applications.

I also created an animation showreel, compiling some of my previous animation projects. This will help potential employers clearly see my abilities and determine which career direction suits me best during the application process.

During my academic career, I have undertaken a variety of projects to improve my modeling skills. For instance, I participated in a collaborative project to produce an animated short film where I was responsible for modeling several key assets, including characters and props. This experience made me understand the importance of teamwork and communication, as well as the ability to adapt to different artistic styles and project requirements. To further my expertise in modeling, I invested time in learning industry standard software such as Autodesk Maya, Blender, and ZBrush. These tools provide unique capabilities that extend my understanding of the modeling process. Maya’s powerful suite of tools for creating and refining models, Blender’s versatility and open source community, and ZBrush’s powerful sculpting capabilities have all helped me grow more proficient.
