Artist statement
Hello there! My name is Milou Baars. I specialize in creating 3D art and animations. I'm passionate about using my creativity and technical skills to make immersive and engaging game experiences.
When I first began my studies at HKU, my main focus was on 2D art and illustration. However, over the course, I discovered a passion for 3D art and animation. I particularly enjoy making characters with a stylized humorous or quirky appearance, and I'm always looking for ways to make my animations with a personality that complements their design. For me, the art of animation is all about bringing my creations to life in a way that is engaging and adds to the experience of the game!
Ambitions
In 5 years, I see myself working as a 3D artist and animator for a successful gaming or even film company. I hope to have worked on a range of projects and to have developed my skills and creative voice in the industry. I hope to build a strong network of industry contacts and collaborators.
Learned during the studies
The most important things I've learned on the HKU is that you will always keep learning. And you have to keep learning, because it's fun! And not just the way you make art, but also in the way you communicate with your team. How every team has worked in different ways. And how to communicate ideas with each other.
After 4 years I thought I would be totally confident choosing my career. But I am still so eager to learn new and different stuff and to keep growing. I feel like I've only just started my adventure at making video games.
