JORT VAN WELBERGEN

online fest #1 - the art department | HOST

Jort van Welbergen is a freelance concept artist, currently living in Rome. He loves making realistic and scientifically accurate designs, working a lot with 3D assets and lighting. Jort has been a curator for The Art Department and is going to host our very first online festival!

Jort likes pushing things both visually and technically within given constraints such as time management. He thinks extensive research is the key for his science inspired designs. His current focus within the design field are hard sci-fi vehicles, props and environments but he also enjoys working on various fantasy projects. Such was his collaboration with Sony Guerrilla Games’ Horizon: Zero Dawn for which he worked over a year.

Other previous clients include HBO, WarnerBROS Atomhawk, ImagineFX, Immersive Entertainment and RealtimeUK. Jort is also a Concept Art Instructor at Game Art Institute in L.A. and IDEA Academy in Rome.
