My name is Oliver Pietern. I’m from Germany and am currently working as an interaction designer and VFX Artist for blueBOX Studio. In my free tine I search the secrets of cuteness and take photos for a local cat shelter.
My biggest strength is being a life-time student and teaching myself in everything that catch my eye. My basic knowledge supply range from technical knowledge (electronics, mechanics) through design, art and content creation (all kinds of visual media) through programming and technical development through training people and customers to complete project leading from the beginning to the end.

My biggest aim is the combination of techniques like traditional painting with digital compositing, photos and many more. Read Less

I like to do some charity work. Sadly I'm not rich but I want to give something back. I love cats and while I have contact to a cat shelter I decided to take pictures there and help those poor and abandoned cats with my pictures to find a new home. Beside the re-homing, the cats helped me a lot to improve my photography skills and its a heart-warming moment when cats find a new home just because someone fell in love with the picture I took. Surprisingly my pictures became very popular and got me some great opportunities like an exhibition or working with greeting card agencies (e.g. Avanti Press) or mars company (Whiskas). But I have to confess, on most of my visits at the cat shelter I just sit there and cuddle the cats! Read Less
