Escapee Alex Budulan TD at Jellyfish Pictures

Alex Budulan
Many congratulations to Escapee Alex Budulan who has become an FX Artist at Jellyfish Pictures.

FX is a growing part of the animation and VFX industry, one where new technology is driving opportunities for employment and growth.

Real time rendering - especially with Unreal Engine - is an area where the technology has shifted in the past few years, with animation and VFX houses abandoning traditional ray-tracers in favour of real time rendering.

Alex Budulan studied the Art of Visual Effects at Escape Studios.  While at Escape, Alex contributed to a number of successful animated films, including the short film "Reece" and the short animated teaser "Street Ratz", which won multiple festival awards, including an award for Best Trailer at the Golden Nugget Film Festival

Awards
"Street Ratz" also won Best Trailer at the Vesuvius Film Festival, "Best Trailer" at the Changing Face International Film Festival in Australia, and was also nominated for "Best Trailer" at the Assurdo Film Festival in Milan in July.   "Street Ratz" is a teaser/trailer written and directed by Austin Hill, produced by Jack Wright, and supervised by Amedeo Beretta.

Alex came to Escape Studios as a lorry driver and left as a VFX artist. You can read more about his story here.
