Northridge, United States
Francis Santos is a 3D artist who is experienced in producing 3D artwork
for film, educational and personal purposes. He is proficient in creating 3D
environmental props such as furniture, buildings, and landscapes. He has
worked as a tutor for 3D modeling at College of the Canyons, where he
got his Associate Degree in Computer Animation in 2019. College of the
Canyons was also the place where he decided to pursue 3D Modeling, and
it is all thanks to his professor, Jeff Baker.
Francis attended California State University of Northridge (CSUN) and

students and was involved in an internship where he was a CGI

where he’s a Lead CGI Artist at both. Francis is always willing to learn new
ways to improve his 3D modeling and will not stop until he reaches his
goal of becoming the greatest 3D Environmental Artist.
