Tanguy Lemonnier

Born and raised in Normandy, France. I Grew up in a big family that taught me the importance of taking care of those around me, and that mentality extends to my love for the environment. I'm a huge fan of landscapes and enjoy exploring new territories on foot. As a sea lover, I relish every opportunity to catch some waves while also recognizing the importance of protecting our oceans. I believe that the environmental challenges we face today are a shared responsibility and that even the smallest actions can make a difference.

For the past few years, I have been fortunate enough to work with some amazing VFX companies across three different continents. During this time, I have learned so much from the talented and caring people around me, and I'm grateful for all of the experiences that have helped me learn MattePainting skills.

What I love most about my work is being able to create backgrounds that transport viewers out of their living rooms and into new and exciting worlds. Whether I'm using Photoshop, Nuke, Maya, or Blender, I am always focused on achieving the best possible outcome for my partners.

While I am proficient with a variety of tools, I find that I work most efficiently and confidently when I'm using the full power and speed of the 2.5D Workflow. This technique allows me to quickly create invisible backgrounds that truly immerse the viewer in the story.
