My name is Francesco Maurizio Gerardi and I am a Senior Unreal Engine 3D Artist with over 10 years of experience in high-end 3D visualization, spanning automotive, product, fashion and real-time projects (VR,AR, 3D configurators).
My background focuses on lighting, look development, texturing & shading, scene assembly in Unreal Engine, delivering physically coherent and production-ready visuals for both stills and cinematic content. I’m also skilled in post production for images and videos:compositing, color correction, color grading, and motion graphics using After Effects and DaVinci Resolve.
Alongside traditional real-time workflows, I specialize in AI-assisted pipelines, working as a ComfyUI Specialist. I design and operate custom local workflows to support image and video production, with a strong emphasis on visual product consistency, control and integration with Unreal Engine.
I work comfortably both independently and within multidisciplinary teams, maintaining a technical, structured approach to lighting, materials, cameras and AI-driven processes. I am currently open to freelance collaborations or long-term roles where real-time technology and AI are used as concrete production tools.
