Hello! Tell us a bit about yourself

Hi, I’m Jantana Hennard. I’m an independent 3D designer currently based in Montréal, Canada.

I’ve worked with several studios, such as Moment Factory, Stink Studios, and Merci Michel.

I mostly work on 3D design for motion, immersive installations and interactive experiences.

I thrive on finding ways to have fun with new technologies.

I’ve had the extreme privilege of working with an amazing team on several projects around the world such as the Shinjuku Metro Station in Tokyo, the Moynihan Train Hall in New York City, and the audiovisual installation for the festival Nuits Sonores in Lyon.

I enjoy blurring the lines between reality and digital art.

This is why my latest side project mixes photorealistic elements with surrealist animations.

I love my job because it allows me to find the extraordinary in the ordinary.

You can find me on Instagram, LinkedIn or Twitter. And of course, here’s my latest portfolio.

Take us through your setup

Moving from Paris to Montréal, I had to build my setup from scratch pretty quickly.

I put a lot of importance on good ergonomics, so I chose to invest in a decent mouse and desk chair.

It makes a difference in the long run.

Since I was working on a lot of wide canvases at the time, I also bought a wide screen to make sure I always have enough room for all my visuals.

It took about two months to get everything I needed.

I had to choose the desk that would arrive quickly (this is why mine is a simple IKEA one) and got some help from friends.
