CGI & Goats*

I am a social entrepreneur and digital artist from Munich.

With my skills i try to give visibility to ideas that are good for the society or the environment. A the end it's about doing the right thing at the right moment.
Together with my friends I already got a few good things done so I made a list.
Support my commitment by purchasing a Premium Goats sculpture.

What does "GOATS" mean in my context?

1. It's an acronym and stands for "Good Or Arty ThingS".
2. I call my drones ヤギ "yagi" (The Japanese word for goat).
3. It simply means goat. I use 3D geometries of goats to e.g. test new computer graphics technologies or just to experiment. The background: I'm a proud member of the GOAT (Goatsolutions since 1999) art collective and that's quite simply what we're doing there. Goats. You can find a couple of these goat CG projects in the 2D / 3D animation category on this website. Further analogue art projects on the subject of goats can be found as well as on the website of our art collective:

Drone Operator

I fly the Dji Inspire 1 Raw and the Dji Mavic Pro. I have a German UAV operator licence (Drohnenführerschein).
With new techniques like "augmented aerial" or "drone motion control" i try to push the boundaries of our business.

3D Generalist

I have over 10 years experience in Cinema 4D. I can do all the basic things needed in a regular 3D/VFX pipeline. Modelling, lighting, rendering, matchmoving and all the other "-ings" along the way of the production - animation and visualization included.

2D Motiondesigner

I am a dedicated Aftereffects expert. I make 2D animations and motiondesign.
I can do complex compositings with matchmoving or things like retouches, set extensions, logo- or wire removal. For rotoscoping i got friends
in far east.

Timefreeze Shooter

Because three dimensions are never enough for a true lover i am specialized in timefreeze shots. It's all about combining my well trained glidecam skills with VFX. Live's hectic enough so it's a good thing to make people freeze sometimes.

My passion

Previzualizing great ideas

The visualization of the Berblinger Tower in Ulm was realized for the artist duo Brunner and Ritz .
You can find a showreel for a brief overview of my other work in the field of 3D animation and compositing here .

The video is awesome. It is more than we thought could have been done with our budget, so we really appreciate the work you put into this for us.Luke P. – Founder Spark to Go
