The Spark
There is in everyone’s life, a moment of direction, brought on by an experience or gift from someone dear. Fabien’s father revealed a software called Blender to him one day. “It was fascinating,” he says. “Quickly, I installed it and followed some of the numerous tutorials available on the web.” Fabien even did a short movie called Freddy’s World in a flurry of inventiveness, in just over three months. “At this point I knew I wanted to make this my vocation, one way or another. I was advised to follow a real training in a school to get more skills. I think the most interesting part of film making is the animation. Giving the illusion of life to a ‘mesh and bones’ character is truly amazing! It is a great thing to see something we imagined taking life on screen. We had the opportunity to see it on the big screen during a festival in Paris. It was really cool!”
