Toni Bratincevic
Environment Modeler at Blizzard Entertainment
Toni Bratincevic is a Senior Environment Modeler at Blizzard Entertainment where he works in the animation team on the latest cinematics. A self-taught artist, his passion for 3D was kindled when he was first exposed to 3D-generated art and movies in the 90s, such as Terminator 2 and Jurassic Park. Toni didn’t have the opportunity to study art and animation, and it was during the completion of his IT degree that he first explored 3D art as a hobby. Toni began his career almost 15 years ago, working as a 3D generalist in Croatia for a studio producing commercials and documentaries. A few years later, he moved to the United States to work in game cinematics at Blur Studio before moving to Blizzard. Cinematics are a perfect balance for Toni; they allow him to work in video games while also being able to create VFX-quality artwork.
