The Naked Texture Artist - Claudia Marvisi - Episode 3

The Naked Texture Artist is a podcast where VFX/animation veterans have deep and honest conversations about their challenges and growth as working artists.

This is the final episode from my conversation with Claudia Marvisi, texture supervisor from Pixomondo. Claudia explains how she ended up picking texturing out of all the disciplines of the VFX pipeline; We also talk discrimination in the workplace, what the future will hold for texture artists, and Claudia explains what makes a good texture artist great. 

Lots of practical advice and observations that we can all benefit from in our careers as working artists.
