I’m SAAR GLAON, a senior 3D artist with 26 years of hands-on experience across 3D production, post-production, commercials, and cinematic work. I’m an expert in Autodesk Maya and I’m especially focused on creating strong lighting, camera, composition, and rendering foundations that make visuals feel truly photoreal. Over the last two years, I’ve expanded into practical AI-assisted image and video production, building multi-model workflows with ComfyUI and leading generation tools to produce reference-based results. From Maya blocking and rendering to AI generation and After Effects compositing, I enjoy taking projects from storyboard and visual development through final delivery for commercial and technical clients.…I’m SAAR GLAON, a senior 3D artist with 26 years of hands-on experience across 3D production, post-production, commercials, and cinematic work.
