Awesome story. Looks like we both have kind of the same interests (technical media, visual effects) so I found this read to be very inspirational. Now if I only could live in California...

Hey, London is a major center for this kind of work, and as an EU citizen, you can work there without a visa!

So as a professional yourself, you can easily notice various fake scenes or mistakes while watching a movie? :D

Sometimes! The very best work can be extremely hard to spot! But, there are some key things to look for.

A big one is if you happen to see a region of the image where the darkest blacks seem oddly more washed out or deeper than the rest. That's a good sign that something was digitally composited, and the compositor didn't do their best work making things match. For a good example of this, see if you can get your hands on a copy of the original Star Wars movies, before they redid them in 1997.

Awesome blog post! Thanks for taking the time to do it.

First off all I was so happy that Golden Compas won the oscar over pirates and transformers. The visual work in compas is just jaw dropping good. And Minority Report is one of my favorite movies.

Its fun how people change work from one direction to another.

I started being interested in the 3d graphics in the early 90ies and buy my own copy of Impulse's Imagine 3d for the amiga. People look so wierd when I told them I spend so much of my hardearned money on software.

My interest also started from following the demoscene, not sure if you know what that is. (realtime running productions running on back then c64/amiga later on pc and tons of other platforms.)

Personally I have gone from ArchViz -> Product Viz to now working on virtual brick support for LEGO Digital Designer.

Though my main enjoyment from the past 10+ years has been Blizzard games, demoscene and movies/series.

Thanks again for posting. Was quite interesting to read.
Only thing I know is that I know nothing.

What a great story, thank you for sharing.
It is interesting how paths develop.


Also it makes me think about all the very talented people that spend so many hours making the things we enjoy.

So do you have any desire to make the jump to games?

Are you a starcraft player?

Re: games, I've considered it in the past, but it's not a goal of mine. The game industry is very different and it would be a big adjustment.

As for Starcraft, absolutely, that's why I'm here, but I'm not very good.
