Where am I right now and what do I want to do? ~ week 1

My current interest is heavily based around photography, specifically in landscape, architecture and people. Last year, I started putting up my work on an Instagram page @inspire_di, few of which you can see here:

As a videographer, my passion is in capturing the real life style videos such as travelling or holidays. So for the past few years I would film and edit a lot of family and friends movies about day-to-day life situations, travel vlogs or some sort of celebration. My current project on the side, which pushed me a lot creatively as an editor, is a movie about my dad’s last year birthday celebration. Whilst having the feel and aesthetic of taking the audience on the journey with me in the video, I was also inspired by Peter McKinnon style of capturing B-Roll in between those scenes.

Having a chance to complete an internship in a Visual Effects company, I got introduced to the world of VFX. Practicing the skills as a compositor and trying to achieve that feel of realistic and organic involvement of a CGI element in the scene or even small adjustments to the shot, inspired and motivated me to pursue the current Masters. I want to further develop the skills and get a better base around them as well as see what other possible roles and practical skills I could be pursuing in the sphere.

I am interested in the research area of applied technology in the world of VFX and how with the new challenges arisen it pushed the sphere to develop techniques and come up with the solutions to the problems created by specifics of the movie. I also want to develop further my skills in rotoscoping, chroma-keying, 2D and 3D tracking as well as grasp the understanding of 3D modelling and push myself as a 2D artist.
