Who am I
I am Patricio Di Bacco, a Technical Artist, Unreal Engine Specialist, and Creative Technologist with more than 15 years of experience at the intersection of art and technology.
My career spans games, VR/AR, immersive installations, and architectural visualization, where I’ve led projects from concept to deployment. As the Founder & Technical Lead of Acrovia Studio, I directed pipelines, built interactive configurators, and created VR experiences for architecture, entertainment, and cultural projects.
My expertise lies in Unreal Engine (Blueprints, PCG, Niagara, Cinematics), 3D asset creation (Blender, Maya, Substance), and pipeline automation with Python/C++. I enjoy solving complex technical challenges, building tools that make teams more efficient, and ensuring artistic vision translates seamlessly into real-time environments.
Beyond 3D and real-time graphics, I bring a strong background in software and web development:
Beyond production, I’m also an Unreal Authorized Instructor, delivering training in English, French, Italian, and Spanish. I believe in sharing knowledge and mentoring the next generation of artists and developers.
I thrive on projects that blur the boundaries between art, storytelling, and technology — whether it’s an immersive VR experience, a cinematic game prototype, or a real-time tool that changes how clients visualize their ideas.
