Which program did you complete at ARC Academy, and when?
I completed my two-year studies at ARC Academy in 2021. In my first year, I got into 3D modeling and had the pleasure of working on the Caim game.
What are you currently working for – in which company and in what position?
I have been working as a 3D artist at Kyodai studio for over a year.
What do your job duties involve?
I make characters and environment assets.
What projects are you working on so far?
I participated in the development of the Caim game at ARC Academy, and I am currently part of two titles that are still in the works.
What was your favorite part of your time at ARC Academy?
Developing Caim was definitely my favorite part of the learning process because I got to experience working in a team for the first time and at the same time apply everything I’ve learned over the years.
How did studying at ARC Academy help you get started in the studio?
Studying at ARC Academy helped me not only develop the necessary work skills and my creative potential but also put me in an environment close to working in a real studio. Teamwork, meeting deadlines, and creating 3D models that are consistent with the art style and meet technical requirements are some of the things I first encountered at ARC. All of this helped me get a better idea of what working in a studio is like.
