In 2005, I finished my undergraduate degree in Anthropology. Changing my interests, I attended the Academy of Art University in San Francisco that fall. I choose to concentrate my studies in 3d modeling in the Department of Animation and Visual Effects under Tareq Mirza, who was both a mentor and friend, trained me in achieving finer detail in my art. My goal is to create 3d visuals used in animated films, video games and other forms of animated story telling. I hope to find oppurtunities in the future to be a 3d modeler and other oppurtunities to be an art director or creative lead as I move from project to project. As I continue to hone my skills, I hope everyone will enjoy my work as much as I enjoyed making it. Thank you. - Mark Tse
