CGI is not just used for mythical creatures and sci-fi worlds but also costumes, props, sets, crowds, buildings, cities.
These are the people who build the digital worlds where we’re increasingly spending our leisure time – in movies, games, and virtual reality.

But as fine art becomes more hands-off and conceptual, digital artists are ironically sustaining the classical disciplines of drawing, painting and sculpture.
