About Shy Begleiter

Skuba3D I was raised on a classic healthy combination of science, music, arts and true love. Over the years, this path lead me to graduate the experimental IASA - Israel Art and Science Academy, and go on to study Architecture at the Technion - Israel Technical Institute, where I first got the chance to try computer aided design applications and got addicted. Shortly after, I started working as a 3D Artist in the Israeli visual industry, and dedicated most of my school work to digital media and computerized 3D solutions. It was therefore obvious when I chose to do my final project in the evolving field of Digital Architecture. As a true lover of architecture and fine arts, and a true believer (and user) of digital media, I see how the boundaries between the "real" environment and "virtual" environment are fading out as the digital era closes around us. I see myself creating within that fine gap, using the tools and skills of both disciplines. At times visualizing buildings not yet built, at others creating skyskrapers that can fly. I specialize in creating three-dimensional architectural spaces and complex urban scenes for use in various media such as rapid prototyping, print, film, commercials, and visual effects. I have rich experience working with leading architects, designers and firms as part of a group, as a group leader, or a lone wolf.
