Between practice and theory: a journey marked by innovation, at the heart of industry and research
Before becoming a professor at the University of Quebec in Abitibi-Témiscamingue (UQAT) in “Création et nouveaux médias”, Erwan Davisseau found himself on the fringes of the video game empire. For 15 years, this 3D creation enthusiast developed and marketed nearly ten video games internationally as an artist, team leader, and then artistic producer.
The remnants of this empire continue to guide and enrich his career: “As my career is moving toward university research, I keep an eye on industry practices.” (Free translation) He continues to passionately hone his skills and innovate in modeling, sculpting, and texturing. “Because I love it,” (Free translation) he sums up in a few words, determined to reach for the stars and beyond!
