We recently connected with Farid Ghanbari and have shared our conversation below.
Farid , thank you so much for joining us today. Let’s jump right into something we’re really interested in hearing about from you – being the only one in the room. So many of us find ourselves as the only woman in the room, the only immigrant or the only artist in the room, etc. Can you talk to us about how you have learned to be effective and successful in situations where you are the only one in the room like you?
I learnt to become active not successful. I think if I put success as my goal it can make me confused and sometimes drag my energy.
Absolutely that can be a result of hard working and being constantly active on the right path, but I rather just focus on that part that I can manage which is being active and keep moving. Maybe that is why a lot of times I just keep moving and don’t care if there are some people watching me or not.
Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?
I mainly do 3D art which includes, commercials, shows and artists collaboration.
Sometimes it can be a scientific animation for a new drug discovery or sometimes can be a show that needs some CGI on huge screens.
I love what I do because it gives me the wide range of freedom to be creative. Besides hardware and software I would say there is no limit to your creativity in CGI. Even softwares these days are incredibly capable of doing almost everything you imagine.
There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?
I like this question!
I think main thing has been always helping me in this journey to grow is curiosity.
I always love to learn something new and see something in nature, people or the environment around me and try to make that in 3D space with my artistic vision.
Second would be architecture. I studied architecture and it helped me to learn how to observe the world.
And last is books. Reading books no matter what is the topic always open a new door in my creativity.
Who has been most helpful in helping you overcome challenges or build and develop the essential skills, qualities or knowledge you needed to be successful?
I would say myself.
I have been always the biggest challenge to myself and at the same time the most helping person because every time I face something new I do my best to find a way to overcome and get the something out of it.
