Biography

Previously I received a Bachelor’s Degree in Film and Media at Budapest Metropolitan University. Here I learned storytelling, directing and editing, also during the final year we touched upon some 3D. This gave me the possibility to create imaginary worlds and bring the cinematic quality of movies into it, a place where my two passions could collide. After working some time in a film studio, where I got experience working with a team and under tight deadlines, I signed up at Think Tank Training Centre, specializing in 3D Environments for Games. I studied the various aspects of Environment Art, such as modeling, texturing and working in a game engine. I'm currently working at Leartes Studios as a Freelance Environment Artist.
