Summary
Hello, nice to meet you.
My name is Sabrina Feist and I studied game art and 3D animation for about four years at SAE Institute Frankfurt in Germany. In 2022, I graduated with a first-class bachelor's degree (bachelor of Arts with Honours) in Game Art Animation. My bachelor thesis project "Design and Creation of a pbr-based 3D Fabric Material Library of Traditional Japanese Style" also won the international SAE Students Award for the best Game Art Students Project 2022. During my time at university, I've gained a wide range of skills, such as 3D modeling, pbr-texturing, material creation, and working with Unreal Engine using modern workflows and the Substance Suit. Starting in 2024, I collected my first professional experience in texture and material art through freelancing.
I'm an enormous texturing enthusiast who loves creating procedural materials and enjoys building environments. As I get excited by 3D art every day, I love exploring new tools and workflows to improve my artistic skills actively.
