My name is Jose Pablo Cespedes. Originally from Costa Rica, I moved to Florida when I was fourteen years old. My interest in the Arts started really early with my Saturday morning cartoons such as Transformers, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and The Nights of the Zodiac. High School is where I met my first mentor, Miss. Long, my art teacher. She pushed me every day to improve my art skills. In 2003, I enrolled in The Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale, FL where I discovered and learned about software such as Maya, Z-brush, Photoshop, Illustrator and other Adobe industry standard programs. My passion in 3D modeling started growing. After earning my Bachelors in Media Arts and Animation I moved to California to pursue my Master in Fine Arts in 3D Modeling. |
