SAM HSU
DIGITAL ARTIST
BIO
I am a digital artist and creator with a passion for all things LEGO. I like to work on digitally rendered art and game development. I am also a musician and record my own original Guitar and Keyboard Soundtracks for the game I'm developing.
​
1998 - As a kid, my first Lego Set was 6817 Beta Buzzer from the Insectoids theme.
I used pieces from multiple sets to build My Own Creations (MOCs) and made my first stop motion animation using my dad's camcorder.
​
2020 - I taught myself to use digital animation tools like Blender and Unity to explore Digital Modeling, Rigging, Animation, and Rendering. I experimented with Motion Capture using an XBOX 360 Kinect which allowed me to make my animations more accurate and streamline the production process.
​
2021 - I entered a Unity Game Jam that partnered with the LEGO group. This sparked my interest in game development and I taught myself to code. After the game jam I started work on my first indie game: "BrickFormers".
