About Me

From an early obsession with transforming visual content, I've spent the last 9 years pushing the boundaries of media synthesis. From YouTube videos to VR and Hollywood.

For the past 3 years, I've been part of Metaphysic's award-winning team, where I blend ethical Machine Learning and Engineering with modern production pipelines to make the impossible look effortless.

Hey, I'm Guus. I'm 22 years old, and since 2017 I've been happily disappearing into VR headsets.

I have a great passion for immersive storytelling, shared experiences, and building worlds that people can actually step into.

It's been a place for creativity, experimentation, and meeting some truly wonderful humans. I keep things positive and light, and VR has been the perfect place for that energy to live.

How I got started
NextFace

I began experimenting with this technology after school in 2017, posting my work on YouTube as Nextface, a hobby that quickly turned into a business when my videos reached an audience of millions.

As one of the few diving deeply into this technology at the time, that exposure led to collaborations with major TV, ad, and film studios.
