KATARZYNA (KAT) MACIOCHA
DIGITAL MATTE PAINTER | COMPOSITOR | CONCEPT ARTIST
SUMMARY
I'm a Digital Matte Painter whose journey in the VFX industry started in 2021 when I graduated from the University of South Wales.
In my works, I focus on digital matte painting and environment creation, doing concept art in my spare time.
I'm constantly gaining new skills in Photoshop, Maya, and Nuke while focusing on projections, paint overs, and set extensions.
In my current role, I am focusing on a high level of realism in my matte paintings. I also have been lucky to collaborate on stylised environments in the past where I could explore digital painting.
I've always been passionate about film and arts, I have been drawing for years, and that's where I discovered my love for creating faraway environments and landscapes.
