Over at Darron’s “It’s what you make of it” blog, he’s got a short interview with Julia Chung on life at Weta FX in NZ, along with some great artwork.
Contracted Weta Previs (Pre-Visualisation) Artist and MDS Diploma of 3D Computer Animation grad Julia Chung grew up reading a lot of manga books when she was little, when she found about the world of 3D, she was sold and “blown away by the idea of being able to bring fantasy world of your own into life.”
As a Previs Artist Julia gets to do a little bit of everything;”I get to work with the director to create assets and set up cameras and shots.” The role of the Previs Artist is a key component in the story-telling process,according to Julia, to specialise in such a role requires an good all-round 3D skill-set.
