“I Was Amazed by the Professional Equipment and Facilities at SF Film School.”

Because of my parents’ profession, I was exposed to short 3D animated films from a young age, which naturally introduced me to this field early on. The direct motivation for choosing this path, however, came from watching my younger sibling learn Adobe Premiere Pro. Seeing the kinds of visually impressive videos that could be created inspired me to start learning Adobe After Effects myself.

At first, the videos I created were very simple, containing only text and music. Even so, after finishing them, I found myself replaying them over and over again because I was so fascinated by the process of creating something with my own hands. That experience motivated me to continue making various kinds of videos afterward.

My interest in the 3D field grew even further around two years ago, when I saw videos on YouTube where game objects with obviously stylized graphics were remodeled and composited to look almost photorealistic. I wanted to try creating something similar myself, so I attempted to follow tutorials from overseas creators. However, I quickly realized the limitations of learning entirely on my own, and from that point on, I began seriously thinking, “I really want to learn this properly.”

When I visited SF Film School, I was especially amazed by the variety of professional equipment and dedicated production spaces available to students. I was also very satisfied with the counseling process because I received answers to many questions I had about the future of this industry, career directions, and the curriculum itself—topics I had previously struggled to fully understand on my own.

My current goal is to find employment in this field. Before entering military service, I plan to complete the foundational version of my portfolio. After finishing my service, I hope to refine and expand it further by adapting to industry trends and developing a clearer understanding of my future career direction.
