Short Biography
My name is Francesco Furneri. I am a CG Artist with a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, postgraduate education in 3D and with a Master of Science (MSc) in 3D Computer Animation. In the last years I have improved my technical/artistic skills, dealing with short CG movie/shots and working as 3D game programmer and Web developer.
At the moment I’m available for freelance work, mainly for general 3D and game-dev. My technical/artistic skills and competences allows me to work by covering several aspects of the 3D pipeling and working with meticulousness and professional quality.

Dachshund Project
This project takes inspiration from my personal dog. The whole short video is based on different steps, starting from modeling, lighting and texturing to have a final scene compositing with everything wrapped up. The work involved some anatomy research, followed by texture, lighting solution and quality enhancements. I remember that the 3D mesh can be purchased from my store and used for your personal projects and portfolios.
