Verónica Buera Bernabé

I am a 27 year old girl, born and raised in Barcelona. I moved to Copenhagen (Denmark) 6 years ago driven by my curiosity to live in a different country, learn a new culture & language, and specially to find what I really wanted to do.

A while after being in Copenhagen I had the chance to study videogames design at IT-University of Copenhagen, where I found my passion for 3d art. While I was writing my master thesis “Engaging in Open World Videogames” (I also have a background in education and psychology), I worked for 8 months in a small Arabic videogames company based in Copenhagen, improving my modeling, unwrapping, texturing and animation skills. I also combined this job with a part time job at my own university, working as a teacher assistant in a Maya course.

I got my diploma in February 2016 and started searching for jobs in Copenhagen. In August 2016 I started working in a Danish videogames company called Portaplay, when I also got informed that I was accepted in a 3D modeling and animation program in the ECIB (Escola de Cinema de Barcelona) in Barcelona. I decided to come back to Barcelona in October 2016 to start my studies at ECIB.
