"I will do my best to become someone who is recognized by others."

I became interested in video production at a young age, and during high school I started creating videos more seriously. Currently, while studying in a media-related department at university, I developed an even greater interest in this field. I became curious about how CG was created, so I searched for it on YouTube. Since I had always enjoyed watching special effects productions, I started thinking, "If I learn CG, I could create the scenes that I have always wanted to make myself."

While watching special effects content, I became interested in creating action scenes, suits, creatures, and unique characters of my own. I felt that my skills in 2D editing alone were not enough, so I wanted to improve my abilities in 3D as well. While looking for academies, I contacted several places with strong portfolios and visited them for consultations. I discovered SF Film School in the same way.

To be honest, I researched and visited many places before deciding to contact the academy that seemed best to me. When I first had a consultation at SF Film School, it felt different from the others. One thing that particularly stood out was the practice studio. Seeing the facilities made me think, "I can actually create professional-level work in an academy environment." I also thought that if I studied here, not only would I be able to create the things I had imagined, but I would also be able to grow even further.

I was honestly surprised when I saw that there were first and second interviews. The idea of entering an academy through an interview process was something completely new to me. However, after hearing the reason behind it during the consultation, I thought it made sense. If someone joins a program that does not suit them, they could end up wasting both time and money, so I thought the interview process was actually a good way to reduce that possibility.

When I first applied to SF Film School, my only thought was that if I got accepted, I would work hard. Even now that I have been accepted, that feeling has not changed. However, since I will be learning 3D, which is something that has had little connection to my past experiences, I also feel some fear. Still, since I have already decided to pursue it, I want to give it my absolute best effort.

I want to work hard, create the things I have always wanted to make on my own, build strong portfolios, and become someone recognized for my work. I will do my best and dedicate myself fully to learning.
