Being a 3D Artist is hard. Our work is engulfing and we often don’t have time to keep up with the ever-changing world of 3D. This weekly newsletter is designed to be a concise list of amazing artwork, 3D news, and updates on tutorials and educational opportunities so can keep up with everything going on in the world of 3D.

Who Am I?

My name is Michael Tanzillo and I’ve been a 3D Artist for over 15 years. I am currently a Head of Technical Artists with the Substance 3D team at Adobe. Before joining Adobe, I worked as a Senior Artist on animated films at Blue Sky Studios/Disney with credits including three Ice Age movies, two Rios, Peanuts, Ferdinand, Spies in Disguise, and Epic. In addition to my work as an artist, I was the Co-Author of the book Lighting for Animation: The Visual Art of Storytelling and the Co-Founder of The Academy of Animated Art, an online school that has helped hundreds of artists around the world begin careers in Animation, Visual Effects, and Digital Imaging.
