Goran Zovkic - VFX / 3D Demo Reel
I was sixteen when I first opened Lightwave's Modeler and became completely entranced. It immediately became a passionate hobby to create my own creatures - something from nothing.

It seemed like magic.

I gave them skeletons, lit them dramatically and I made them move - I brought them to life!

I was passionately intent on improving my understanding and mastery of this toolset. Over the past sixteen years, I've had the incredibly good fortune and opportunity to learn from dozens of incredible artists as I explored the many facets of the industry.

I continue to find myself driven by the same passion today as I did in those early days - to improve my understanding and mastery of a toolset that continues to amaze and delight me.
