ロ―ランド セドリック ROLANDO CEDRIC
Cher responsable de recrutement,
Je m’appelle Cédric Rolando, je suis un Artiste 3D Généraliste de 37 ans vivant à Tokyo depuis près de 7 ans.
Passionné par le jeu vidéo et fort d’une solide expérience en création artistique numérique, je souhaite rejoindre votre équipe en tant qu’artiste polyvalent freelance.
J’ai participé à la direction artistique de divers projets vidéoludique, réalisé des modèles 3D (personnages, décors, effets spéciaux), et créé des animations simples et des riggings. Ma maîtrise des logiciels 3D tels que Blender, NomadSculpt, Substance Painter, ainsi que des moteurs de jeu comme Unreal, m’a permis de produire des assets optimisés et visuellement attrayants.
Polyvalent et autonome, j’apprécie travailler en petite équipe et relever des défis variés. Je parle nativement français, couramment Anglais et j’ai un niveau de japonais intermédiaire. Ma capacité à travailler à distance et à communiquer en anglais, tant à l’oral qu’à l’écrit, a toujours été un atout dans mes collaborations internationales.
Disponible dès que possible, je suis prêt à m’engager dans cette aventure en remote a partir de Tokyo. Mon taux journalier pour commencer notre collaboration serait de 300 euros/ jour. Je serais ravi de discuter plus en détail de ma candidature et de la valeur que je peux apporter à votre entreprise.
Je vous prie d’agréer, Madame, Monsieur, l’expression de mes salutations distinguées.
Rolando Cedric.
