Edward Lai started his computer animation career in Taipei, Taiwan as a keyframe animator and inbetweener in 2000. He quickly became an expert at using Adobe AfterEffects to put the finishing touches on the company's work.
Upon the completion of a four-minute stylized animated music video project, he enrolled at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco. During his three years in the MFA program he found what really interested him. Inspired by the cinematic art in the movie Blade Runner, he decided to specialize in lighting and textures in computer graphics.
Edward is a dedicated artist who has worked his magic for Archimage and Illusion Studio since early 2005. When not working, he uses his free time to read image books, practice his photography, and to watch films in his desperate quest to understand how lighting really works. His co-workers point to light bulbs, show him electrical switches, and even gave him a flashlight. But, Edward will not be deterred. To this very day, he continues on his mission to unravel the mysteries of the universe.
