Anton Markov
CGI Artist
PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE:
Anton Markov is a young CGI artist who discovered Photoshop and Blender at just eight years old, with no idea that these tools would become his first source of income just a few years later. While still in high school, he also completed a three-year course in Graphic Design. At only sixteen, early in his academic journey, he received his first job opportunity as a Graphic Designer.
Over the next three years, Anton gained valuable experience working with a variety of clients in the Graphic Design field. His work included creating food labels, corporate advertising materials, product catalogs, posters, brochures and clothing prints.
Dreaming of working in 3D animation and making films since early childhood, Anton pursued specialization in this field. He quickly created his first CGI film, which he presented as a course project. After finishing his studies, Anton decided to focus entirely on 3D art. A university in Canada accepted him with his portfolio, but the slow learning pace soon disappointed him. He returned to Bulgaria, where, in less than a year, he completed his first demo reel, which he intends to develop throughout his career.
As a young CGI artist, Anton continues to seek new growth opportunities and ambitiously aims to expand his knowledge, no matter the environment. He believes that as a self-taught artist, he has faced many challenges and gained insights he can now share with others.
