Junichi Yamazaki

Description:

My name is Junichi Yamazaki, currently living in Denver CO. I have been working as a freelance CG designer for more than 5 years, as well as teaching several computer graphic applications such as 3ds max, Maya, After Effects, Photoshop, and Illustrator at some digital art schools and at a university. Before starting my career as a designer, I worked in the import/export division of an eyewear company for another 5 years, doing business with wholesalers and chain stores in the US, Europe, and Asia. My job was creating new eyewear designs for various worldwide fashion brands. In addition, I controlled the production line, managed all shipments, took care of the accounting ... well, basically, I did everything. Through my design work I discovered Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator and I became more interested in computer graphics and visual effects. I love making things. Not only am I interested in making 3D models, animation, and motion graphics, but I also enjoy photography, drawing, assembling guitar effectors, building furniture, fixing motorcycles and bicycles...and more. I look forward to meeting other creative people who are working on interesting projects.
