3d experience 7 years. Started from learning all basics in 3d Max 2, then moved to plug-ins. After about 2 years moved to modeling. Have been modeling in Rhino for about 3 years. Then found out about Alias Studio tools )))) Tried myself there. Now i have 1.5 Studio Tools experience. But not so professional, you know, coz i learned it from tutorials found in the internet. And this is a lil bit far from perfect learning process in schools =) In addition i have good skill in 2d painting (mattepainting) in Photoshop + some compositing skill in After Effects (Combustion).
For the last 3 years i work as a freelancer. Made a lot of job for many companies around the world. Last half a year worked in Sweden in PostProduction film Studio (studio work for Volvo mostly) - made some movies for Volvo cars + DVDs for car advertising. Now work at home (in Russia) with one germany PostProduction company.
