Who am i?
Silly, Techy, Open-Minded 25 year old who loves a large amount of subjects. I enjoy understanding the misunderstood in Humanity. I believe I could be wrong about lots of stuff. I laugh about pretty much everything, can't help but find humor. And I easily miss the obvious, Oh- I ask a lot of stupid questions.

Started out with Pen Testing (Hacking); breaking into routers, sniffing network packets and brute forcing Wifi Passwords.

The Future

what i'm doing currently
June 21
3 months ago I started work on a personal Short Film Series. I enjoy the 80s computers being seemingly future-forward, remaining clunky and antiquated, the User Interface, like the old operating systems of Windows 95/XP. And of course Spaceships! Alongside Outer Space and Sci-fi.The theme being dark, grim and keeping tension.With that in mind, my emotions feel the drive to create art that is related to lost Data and Information, in need to be processed, how we humans feel the need of connection with another.I also love the Alien Movie Universe, more specifically the technology that is in it.So that is exactly what I have been fulfilling. My goal is releasing the first episode before 2026. They will be 1-4 minutes each. The first episode will take the longest to complete.The main struggles has been setting everything up, Modelling the computers, creating ships that have purpose, designing an Operating System from the ground up, Adjusting Colour Gradings, creating materials that react to appropriate lighting, animating until it feels right.
