About Thomas

3D designer specializing in rendering and interactive applications, based in Aix-en-Provence.

I design precise and usable 3D environments, used both as decision-making tools in architecture and scenography, and as immersive and interactive devices.

My work combines technical rigor, spatial clarity, and visual excellence, with a fully mastered 3D pipeline.

  • Advanced Modeling (complex topology) - Blender
  • Procedural Content - Blender Geometry Nodes
  • PBR Texturing & Shading
  • Sharp Lighting and Composition
  • Performance Capture, Animation, Rigging, VFX
  • Unreal / Unity (real-time integration, XR, optimization)
  • Intuitive Web Design (WebXR / WebGL), gesture navigation to reveal content.
My latest projects:

**You Will Kill Me For Your Pleasure: interactive installation (Unreal Engine) with sensor**, photorealistic character, VFX, animation via performance capture, and eye-tracking interaction.


For the Energy Department of IUT Aix-Marseille: Massalia 2050.
3D visualization of a self-sufficient school, developed on Unreal Engine. 3D film.

Le Lieu Unique: What can I do for you? by Lauren Lee McCarthy.
Complete modeling of the exhibition under the direction of Thierry Fournier (exhibition curator). The 3D model allowed for detailed anticipation of the scenography: furniture layout, lighting study (natural and artificial), sun movement simulation, and partition adjustment. This advance preparation facilitated coordination between teams in Los Angeles, Nantes, Le Perche, and Marseille.

    Creation of all 3D views for Lauren Lee McCarthy's exhibition at Le Lieu Unique (2024): What can I do for you?
    For Thierry Fournier: curator and scenographer of this exhibition.

    This complete 3D model (building, scenography, and artworks, lighting) allowed the team to visualize the project remotely throughout its design phase: the artist in Los Angeles, the team at Le Lieu Unique in Nantes, Thierry Fournier in Le Perche, and myself in Marseille.

    Lauren Lee McCarthy creates situations where she frequently takes on the role of devices (personal assistants, artificial intelligences, fictional surrogate mothers...) by interacting with their users and following their commands. By embodying these roles, she brings out the human where it is least expected and raises universal and current questions about care, attention, otherness, and power.
