New artists often experience impostor syndrome and doubt their skills when surrounded by colleagues with more experience. In this chat with new artist Klaudia Kowalczuk, you will learn about overcoming these feelings and how not being afraid to say you don’t know or don’t understand can help you overcome hurdles when in production.
Klaudia Kowalczuk is a Digital Generalist with a range of skills in audiovisual and FX work, currently working as a Lighting TD at Dupe VFX.
