About

Elian Maamer

VFX generalist with a preference for environments. Studying computer graphics techniques, VFX specialisation, at Haute École Albert Jacquard (HEAJ), Brussels.

What I enjoy is understanding how an image, a tool or a system is made — and then making it. That took me from 3D rendering to visual effects, and from visual effects to applications: when a tool was missing, I designed it, with AI as a development assistant.

Today I run two threads in parallel: image production (environments, compositing, lookdev) and designing applications for real clients. They feed each other: the rigour of a VFX pipeline helps structure an application; the reflex to automate helps produce more images.

I use AI as a development and exploration assistant. I say so clearly, project by project.

What I'm looking forINTERNSHIPnow

An internship in VFX or 3D, ideally on environments — lookdev, lighting, compositing or real-time. Starting as soon as possible. Brussels and Namur, mobile across Belgium.
