Who Am I?
This is me, Jelke van Beekveld (just call me Jay), Current age 25 and working on different projects on the daily.
The things I’ve done
During my early life I was mostly focussed on the more scientific side of things. Up until my 21st year I’ve been studying mostly Applied Natural Sciences and thus have developed a more research based way of approaching projects. Especially with the projects I work on nowadays, this is a great asset to have, as it allows me to more accurately document results and connect them to expected results based on theory and previous projects that focussed on the same topics.
The things I do
Over recent years I’ve started to come out of my shell more. While I used to be closed off, cold and analytical. I’ve learned to get out of my comfort zone more and started doing the things I actually wanted to do. Creating content, whether that’s through infotainment on YouTube. Creating music videos with 3D Blender animations, video- and photography, or honing my skills in 3D architecture in general and game creation. I want to explore various aspects of digital art and how to express myself.
I wish to become an artist capable of perfecting my skills through iterations and feedback and thus optimize my products to the fullest.

“Enjoying creating” while straightforeward at first, has a deeper meaning to me. I’ve seen a lot of people creating content with little heart put into it just to maximize profit. I do not aim for that, while the things I create don’t hit it off big, they are what I enjoy putting out. I want to work with people that create out of meaning and for quality, not for the benefits that can be gained from it.
