About 

Myer Kim is a aspiring architect, scenic designer, and artist. Myer first began his art journey through traditional and digital mediums. Creating comics throughout middle school eventually drawing mechs and creating animations in high school. 

Myer started getting into Cinema4D after watching Corridor Digital create vfx (Visual Effects) and sfx (Special Effects) with Cinema4D and inspired by Mike “Beeple” Winkelmann’s style of artwork. After realizing engineering was not his path, Myer began getting interested in architecture, drawing architectural sketches with an elementary understanding of design.

Currently, Myer is enrolled at James Madison University studying BFA Architectural Design and minoring in Theatre (Design) and Art (Photography). Myer plans to enroll in graduate school to get his Master of Architecture (M.Arch) or work as a professional designer.
