Antonio Niculae

Worldbuilding has always captivated Antonio, a fascination that led them to pursue a Master’s in Production Design at the esteemed National Film and Television School. There, Antonio explored the intricacies of set construction, from initial concepts to the drafting of detailed plans, elevations, and the creation of immersive 3D visualisations. His professional journey within the Art Department has been diverse, with roles ranging from Art Department Assistant on the feature film Johnny English Strikes Again to DFX Production Draughtsman for A Boy Called Christmas. In these capacities, Antonio constructed and visualised expansive 3D landscapes and structures, complete with camera animations that transitioned seamlessly to the VFX team. Most recently, Antonio was involved in conceptualising from pre-production through to post-production on the Oscar-winning film Poor Things.
