Summary

Hi My name is Vian Grobler, and I’m a 23-year-old former student of Media Design School, where I pursued a Bachelor's in 3D Modeling and Visual Effects. I decided to gain industry experience before specializing in a specific field, so I completed my undergraduate diploma in Digital Media, Design, and Arts, alongside certificates in PLC Software Engineering. This diverse training has provided me with practical insights into the creative industry's various facets, from Adobe Creative Suite to Maya, Nuke, and more, My experience spans multiple fields, including 3D modeling, VFX compositing, image and video editing, and texturing. I've worked in construction, where I learned the value of hard work, and in retail, which honed my teamwork and time management skills. My roles at Hallensteins Distribution Centre and JB-HIFI further developed my ability to coordinate teams and manage tasks with precision. Additionally, I’ve volunteered with Reaching a Generation in Africa, which taught me the importance of collaboration and dedication..

I have accumulated a range of letters and references, that i believe accurately reflect my integrity, skill and diligence towards completing given tasks, to a high standard of professionalism. I would hope to form a part of your team.

Yours sincerely Vian Grobler.
