Quentin AUGER

Technical Director

Quentin is an Industrial Design Engineer from U.T.C. turned 3D animator after getting hooked on CGI technologies in the automotive industry and going back to school at Gobelins Animation School in the late 90’s. Since then, his engineering background must have taken over since he quickly became as excited at the technical aspects of 3D animation, as he was with the animation job itself. He has a lot of experience in a wide range of jobs from Animator, to Rigger, to Rigging Sup, to Pipeline TD and Sup and in many different studios in a handful of countries like France, Germany and the USA (at Industrial Light & Magic, LucasFilm group in San Francisco). He also taught at Gobelins School and gave conferences on rigging at Disney Animation Studios. Since 2011, he is Studio 100 Animation’s Head of Technology, dealing with the internal and external 3D and 2D animation pipeline considerations along with our CG sups, our R&D Department, our Real Time Lab (VR) and partner studios and institutions.
