Profilo professionale

Passionate about comics and animation since I was a child, my passion evolved into the world of 3D. For years I have undertaken a self-learning journey, continually perfecting myself. In 2024 I graduated in industrial design at the University of Palermo and shortly after I undertook a master's degree in computer graphics and animation at Bigrock in 2025. At the same time I worked as an artistic gymnastics teacher and as a 2D graphic designer and animator. I am very enthusiastic and eager to start building excellent work experience in the sector

Esperienza lavorativa

Props artist & 3D Generalist

Pepito Produzioni
Smart working
06.2025 - 03.2026


I joined Pepito Produzioni for the production of the animated short film "Con Te," a project destined for national broadcast on RAI. In this role, I personally created every background and environmental prop featured in the film. The production utilizes a mixed media technique, blending 3D assets with 2D textures and elements. My technical process involved a dedicated pipeline: I performed the initial modeling of all assets in Maya and subsequently migrated them to Blender for final optimization and refinement. Collaborating directly with the Director and the Lead Concept Artist, I ensured that every 3D environment perfectly translated the 2D artistic vision, maintaining the high-quality standards required for national television broadcasting.

As an Environment and Texture Artist at Studio Rain, I contributed to high-profile productions including the animated feature film "Enrico Mattei - Il Gigante" (produced by Pepito Produzioni) and the animated short film "The Giants of Mont'e Prama" for the Giovanni Marongiu Civic Museum in Cabras, Sardinia. My work focused on the technical development of 3D backgrounds and scenery assets, collaborating closely with the Concept Artist to translate artistic visions into fully realized 3D environments. I managed the complete pipeline from environment modeling to UV mapping and texturing, ensuring that the original artistic integrity and narrative requirements were preserved while delivering high-quality 3D backgrounds for each production.
