What
is your Name, Age, and Job Title?
Marco "KarmyZ" Carminati, I'm 24 years
old and I'm a digital artist working as a freelancer.
In terms of CG, How did
it all begin for you?
All began when I was at art school. I saw from
a friend of my brother 3d studio (the old release!)
and I found it amazing how you could move in
a 3d world....over the time I understand that
CG is an excellent tool to develop your own
artistic potential.It gives you the possibility
to unify all the great arts like sculpting,
painting, animation, directing and other in
one virtual environment.
What was your very first
CG project? was it a success?
My
very first project is "The Glubber";
I started with the idea to do just a little
animation of a character, then I developed it
into a 3d short. For me it's a success, the
success that you have when you show to yourself
that you are able to finish a project of yours,
and is considered a success because it won two
first price here in Italy like best 3d short
animation.

How long have you been in CG and what is your
current job?
I
started five years ago with CG and since two
years ago I'm working as a freelancer having
my own studio here in Italy, near Milan.
What has been
your greatest accomplishment in your career?
The
Glubber for now is my greatest accomplishment,
but I won't stop there; I'm always working on
new projects...
Of all of your
artwork, which piece is your personal favorite
and why?
One
of my favorites is "Caricature", where
the excellent illustrator Kruger inspired me;
anyway I like "The Glubber" because
I think that it transfers the personality of
the character.
In this image I want to achieve a photographic
effect, like if the Glubber is the model posing
for the photographer on a photo studio where
he's making his portfolio book!:)
In the image "Night tree" I like the
atmosphere of the environment; I wanted to give
a painting look with a blue color dominant
What
is one piece of advice you would give to the aspiring
artist?
Always
feed the traditional artistic skills.
What are you plans
for the future?
I like to work on the cinema environment. In the
last year I work for "Aida degli Alberi",
where I create over 1 minute of CG for the last
sequence of the movie, and I also worked on the
special effects of two american horror movies.
But my plans for the future are to create something
that here in Italy doesn't exist, a 3d movie...
Are you working on any projects currently? If
so, what are they?
Now
I just finished working on a trailer for a 3d
cartoonish movie...
Can
you give away one of your CG secrets to success?
I
don't know if I have secrets for success, but
I take some Leonardo da Vinci principles to
live my life:))) Curiosity, the balance between
art and science, research.....those are always
actual and I think that they are very useful
for everyone!
Thank you very
much ____ for your time and we hope to see
more of your work soon.
