Pieter Snyers - °02 July 1991
I am a 23-year old graduate from Karel de Grote-Hogeschool, Antwerp, Belgium. I got my degree in Multimedia and Communication Technology in june 2014. I started my studies at the University of Antwerp, starting out in Computer Science in 2009. After 2 years I found that I am more of a creative being than an oldskool programmer. All of the maths and hard theoretical lessons were just too difficult for me. At the moment, I am an Interfacing/Reporting Consultant at ProTime. I'm helping our customers reporting our time registration software's data and interfacing to exernal packages and software. My after-hours work would mostly be brought back to the terms of "2D and 3D digital creativity". I draw, I design, I develop and I create using Adobe's Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash, InDesign, After Effects, Maxon's Cinema 4D, Final Cut Pro X, Unity 3D and a number of textual editors to end up with a meticulous, (pixel-)perfect result. In my spare time I foremost am a musician. I have been playing the trumpet since I was about 8, and in the meantime I studied piano and taught myself how to play the ukelele. I also play chess, which I practice in a local chess-club. Of course, as a student, I was (and in some degree still am) a member of some student associations, namely WINAK and Castrum. The first being the faculty association of Mathematics, Computer Science and Physics at the University of Antwerp. The latter being an association that wants to live up to all of the classical student traditions as they have been prescribed many years ago. We try to avoid all of the well-known negative prejudices around student associations. If you ever got any questions, don't hesitate and just contact me!
Managing
Throughout the years, I got the opportunity to be the team leader, project manager, (scrum) master, moderator, meeting director and a number of other "in-lead" terms of several projects, productions and teams. I always strive to give everybody of whom I am in charge fully cooperate to their best capabilities, so that we can come up with a meticulous result.
Driven
For every single task I have to do, I try to go all-out with my knowledge and skills, so to challenge myself and learn new things. The question I will probably always ask the most is "Why?". Isn't there a way to improve things, or what can I learn here or there?
Digital Creativity
Some keywords that would describe myself would be: creative, competitive, digitally native & innovative. To describe my personal work I would say: Digital, 2D/3D, multimedia oriented & technical. Through my studies I learned to combine the technical world with the creative, and I hope to further develop that interest.
