Conversation with Jiyun Jeong<\/a>, a graduate from the Bachelor in 3D Animation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As long as she can remember, Jiyun has always loved drawing. It was a way to express her thoughts even before she could speak (according to her mum \ud83d\ude09), and it is still the case for her today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After graduating from high school, Jiyun joined a Bachelor in Filmmaking in New Zealand. However, after one year, she was looking to change her path as she was considering keeping arts as a personal hobby rather than a career. It was a moment of uncertainty about her future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later on, Jiyun had the opportunity to move to Luxembourg where she applied to two Bachelor\u2019s programmes at the University of Luxembourg<\/strong>: Computer Science and Animation<\/strong>. Although she always loved Animation as a medium, she never considered studying it until she discovered the opportunity to do so here in Luxembourg. After hesitating a bit, Jiyun decided to pursue her career in Animation and not give up her passion for art and storytelling!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She has always felt like the \u2018art kid\u2019 at school and did not know many people around who were passionate about drawing, animation, and games like she was. So the Bachelor in Animation<\/strong> was eventually the right place to be<\/strong> surrounded by and connect with students and instructors with similar interests in art..<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After these 2 years and with an Animation degree in her pocket, Jiyun still applies the principles of Animation that she learned at university. And because the instructors are professional animators<\/strong> themselves, she now realises the chance she had to learn directly from them<\/strong> and how the assignments structure and the feedback system had a similar approach to that of a workplace environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jiyun is very proud of her Bachelor\u2019s graduation film<\/strong> (demoreel) It was a personal achievement for her to have made a film to the best of her abilities using everything she had learned from the courses, and with the help of fellow students and instructors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A huge success for her as her short film has been selected in 2 major events<\/strong>: Luxembourg City Film Festival and Bo\u00eetes \u00c0 Images film festival.<\/p>\n\n\n
