This
is the website where me (k.jun) and my beloved wife(97bzo)
introduce our
3D works.
we hope you enjoy the stay :)
Q.Please tell me what country were you born?
A:We were born in
Korea and currently still reside there.
So we are not very good at
English. Therefore we may reply
to your email rather late.

permission from each client.
However,if you want to use it for your personal blog
or website you can do so without permission if you indicate to whom
the copyright belongs to.
Q.What

Q.I would like to be a modeler. What education should
I get, Could you recommend a good academy?
A: When we first started 3D,there were no proper academy.We
are sorry that we do not know any good academy that we could recommended
to beginners. Also,we cannot decide for you whether to study at an
academy or work on your own.We believe that most efficient way to
learn it would differ depending on the person learnig.
Nowadays it became easier to find 3D study material
because there are many useful books and wedsites.I think that it
would help a lot if you listen to thoughts and experiences of people
who is "journeying through similar path" at 3D group in
portal sites or CG sites such as 3dtotal.com, highend3d.com, cgtalk.com
and so on.
It is very difficult to master 3D in a short period of
time.It is very important to work continuously and diligently.Do
not give up just because things does not work out at first.Even
if it seems like a difficult road,many people have already traveled
through that pass before.
Q.Do I need to get
permission to make link to your website?
A: No, you do not need
permission.
Link
is free.

I'm K.jun(Hyung Jun
Kim).I started CG in 1997, so it has almost been 10
years.
I majored painting in college and one day I
was not satisfied in just drawing with brush and pencil, then I came across to
hear that it is possible to make animation on my own. That is when I got
mesmerized by the charms of 3D.
One year after starting 3D, my first trailer “Mirror”
won the gold prize at the first Korea
computer art association. Since then I had the opportunity to participate in
various productions of trailers. I became interested in game genre and since
2003 I have been working in a game company call NCSOFT.
I had been the manager of visual production
team and worked on many promotional posters and game trailers. At the moment, I
am the art director of an online game call Aion. To create a new world as a god
does in the game is very interesting.
I grew up in a small village in the mountains
where we had street festivals in April. All I could see around me was high
mountains and big rivers, but the beautiful memory from my childhood helps me a
lot when I work on my pieces.
I like to go driving with my wife and go out
to take photographs in my leisure time. I also enjoy movies and gaming. It
bothers me most when I only have little time left in my WOW account.
Favorite movies: Contact, gladiator,
the LOTR series, Star Wars,
the memory of muder
Favorite music: New age,
Mozart, Tchaikovsky,
Load of the dance
Favorite artists: Tezuka Osamu, Miyazaki Hayao. William Bouguereau,
Lawrence Alma, Musha,Linda Bergkvist,
Craig Mulin,Steven
Stahlberg,
Ingres

97bzo(Eun hee choi)
I started 3D from a very simple reason. 8
years ago, I needed a turning point and unexpectedly it turned out to be 3D. I
started without any expectation but learning 3D very exciting and it was like
waiting for art class at school when I was a child. I became to believe that my
new work will be able to present me with something valuable in my life.
After preparing a portfolio, I applied for
many positions and one animation studio contacted me. As I remember my
portfolio was not so great at that time, but the director who hired me told me
later that he was impressed with my portfolio because he thought I was very
brave to hand in that portfolio. (Funny thing is the director who hired me is
my husband, kjun)
We have moved on from the company we worked
together. My husband works in a game company and I work as a freelancer.
I especially like
fine pieces of William Bouguereau
and Lawrence Alma. My happy dream is to make such beautiful illustration world like them. I
think coming across 3D is my biggest fortune, since it enables me to draw even
though my drawing skill is not so great.
Favorite movies & animation: The LOTR series,
X-men series, Harry potter series, Ann of green gables,Fullmetal
archemist,Howl's moving castle, The girl who leapt through time
Favorite books: The LOTR series,The Name of the Rose,Foucault's pendulum,The
alchemist,
Classic
myths
