What our students say

Laura Legras

Student

Michal is a wonderful mentor. He happily shares his knowledge and experience and always takes the time to answer every question. He helped me to improve on both technical and artistic skills and introduced me to many new things. I feel truly lucky to be mentored by the amazing and kind person Michal is.

Jacob Pernell

"Björn is an amazing VFX artist and mentor. He is incredibly encouraging, supportive, and positive, and is always doing his best to push his skill and ability so that he can provide the best teaching experience to me and his other students. He is incredibly knowledgeable about many aspects of VFX/technical art and the games industry in general, so he has often been able to provide me with advice and perspectives that I would not have otherwise considered. I 100% recommend learning from Björn without hesitation!"
