Background

About Chris Koehler

I have always had a fascination with art. Comic books, movies, role-playing and video games have always been the spark for the fire of imagination that lead me to a notebook filled with sketches and doodles by the end of math class. In high school, I soon realized that I wanted to pursue my passion for art as a career in animation. The rest of my time in school and college was spent taking any and every course associated towards my ultimate goal. From 2D/3D animation to sculpture and life drawing I absorbed and implemented every little thing. From all that information I deciphered this; There is not any secret to creating art, but that creating art is just another alphabet to learn that represents what one is trying to recreate for people to read. Since then I have continued to pursue my passion into digital mediums and with my experience and knowledge now serve as a 3D animation director for a nationally accredited college in San Luis Obispo, California. I love teaching; however my true calling still awaits me in the VFX Industry as I look forward to the day when I can see people waiting in line for the next big title that I helped to create.
