Quote from the book:
- “Success, no matter where you are and how much money you make, is primarily the ability to build a vision and strive to reach it no matter what. I’ve recently been interested in entrepreneurship as a genre, and found the conflict point between business and creativity is very thrilling to me. These are of completely different natures.”

Quote from the book:
- “Every space needs to be celebrated in a particular way, every space is different. I don’t believe in standard marketing stereotypes or preselling ideas. It is definitely one way to go, but I prefer to explore every single possibility.”

Quote from the book:
- “I never wanted to be in a job I’m comfortable with, I was always looking for new challenges. I know it sounds exhausting, and it is, but it’s also very satisfying; moreover, I never liked being trapped in repetitive tasks. Of course, there are limits to one’s potential, but that’s exactly what I want to find out – which are mine. It’s a life-long quest.”
Fabio Ciliberti
Fabio Ciliberti
Fabio Ciliberti is a 3D artist based in Prague. With a Master’s Degree in Industrial Design, his background is very varied and has wide technical knowledge in terms of design, materials, modeling. Before becoming a 3D artist, he covered few but very different job positions, from a young yacht designer and CAD modeler to a senior retail interior designer. When his passion for 3D art came out stronger than before, all these competences helped him a lot to develop high end visuals and become a professional.
-
Quote from the book:
- “My advice for new people approaching this industry is to start with these instead of first trying to learn classic path tracing or ray tracing engines, because their quality is going to increase with time. Nevertheless, success in this industry is never guaranteed, so if you want to start, remember that you have to really love this job and accept all the adversities you will encounter.”

Marcin Lusnia is an artist from Poland who was born in 1988. In 2010, he and his brother founded a P&M studio which specializes in architectural visualizations. Marcin has always been focused in his work on detail and on achieving photorealism as much as possible. His 15+ years of experience have taught him that although not all projects will be satisfactory or as creative as he would like, one can still learn something new each time. So the most important thing is to simply keep creating. When one creates something, they should express themselves, feel it in their bones and completely free their mind.

Alex Hogrefe
Alex Hogrefe
Alex Hogrefe is a professional architectural visualizer working in Cambridge Massachusetts. He is interested in giving architecture visualization a human touch by removing the perfection that technology pushes and inserting imperfection that happens in nature and in life. In that sense, realism for him is not about being perfect, but instead about being imperfect.
-
Quote from the book:
- “To this day, the art of image making is what drives me. As much as I wish I got excited about the technical side of visualization, it just does not connect with me the same way art does. It has been my biggest struggle in this industry to build up and invest the time in my technical abilities the way I do for my artistic abilities. It is only recently that photo realism has entered my lexicon and is something I now focus on.”

Nigel Hunt
Nigel Hunt is owner and founder at Urbân, Editor in Chief at 3Disciple Magazine, Co-organizer at 3ds Meetup Groups and CEO at SiNi Software. He currently lives in London, United Kingdom.
Nigel Hunt has been involved in computer graphics image-making since the early 1990’s. He has 25 years of experience as a director/producer of film, visual effects and architectural visualization on more than 2500 projects in 40 countries. His passion is filmmaking and development of technology to do more complicated work in less time with smaller teams. He believes transferring this knowledge to VR, AR and MR is key to future-proofing visual storytelling through captivating and immersive images and sound design.
He started his own studio in 1996 and ran this for 20 years in London, United Kingdom.
All of the work presented on the site has been creatively directed by him, but credit must be awarded to the many artists, directors and producers he employed and collaborated with over the years. Commercial image-making on scale is a team effort which requires artistic curiosity, technical know-how, diplomacy, and people skills.
Now somewhat independent, he consults, mentors, directs and produces image-making projects around the world, collaborating with talented like-minded artists and studios.
He mentors emerging artists and studios in the industry. He is very happy to listen and advise on strategy when required. Additionally, he confidentially consults with established studios on industry business issues and practices. Sharing knowledge is important to the sustainability and growth of the industry.
He loves working in production and remains very active in directing and producing projects. Additionally, he is a co-founder of SiNi Software, a fast-growing 3D software company focused on building the best tools and plugins for 3D artists working mainly in the architectural visualization/AEC community.
Having spent my entire adult life in CGI, VFX and production, I see no sign of this slowing down!
