MIZUNO WAVE INSPIRE 17

My biggest highlight at The Foundry? Designing a complete shoe in only 5 days at Mizuno HQ in Japan with Daniel Cook (Creative Specialist) and Richard Kempson (Enterprise Sales Manager).We worked tirelessly, adapting a paper sketch to client feedback in real-time. Our expertise in 3D modeling, texturing, lighting, and rendering, combined with our collaborative approach, were pivotal factors.
The client's "WOW" at the presentation made it all worthwhile. As CG artists, that's the ultimate reward. This project even earned me a Foundry Values Champion award thanks to my colleagues nominations.

Beyond the project, I loved exploring Kyoto and the amazing people at Mizuno.
