Have a look at my CV deutsch | english
Hi folks - welcome to my portfolio webpage. My name is André Schaarschmidt, I was born in Berlin, Germany in 1982.
I studied in Elstal at the
German Film School.
This webpage is my platform to show you my projects and artwork.

As I love solving problems and optimizing workflows, I have chosen to focus on the technical aspects of CGI. I was always keen on coding and designing, so Turbo Pascal and MS Paint became close friends in my childhood. :) Things moved on with POV-Ray and Moray until I got stuck at 3D Studio MAX 2.0

In 2002 I graduated A-level (Abitur) and moved to Ireland for a year. After that I travelled with a friend for 12 months throughout Asia. Back in Germany I did an internship at the post production company Feinwerk (formerly "Das Werk"). I started my studies as a Digital Artist in 2005 and graduated in August 2008. With the diploma degree I started in September 2008 my freelance career as a Digital Artist.

Since then, I worked on two feature film productions, which strengthened my interest and focus on pipeline and tool development. A path I will pursue for the next years.
