I'm João Pedro, a Brazilian lighting and 3D artist based in Paris.
I come from a creative technology background and work where 3D, programming and real-time meet, in Unity and Unreal Engine. Most of my career has been in startups, building interactive 3D and VR experiences and taking technical solutions from concept to implementation.
Before that I worked in architectural visualization and digital fashion, where lighting, materials and image making became the part of the work I care about most.
