Mohamed Gambouz, from the distant shores of Casablanca, Morocco, began his journey in games with a Visual Arts program in a Technical School in Casablanca. During his studies, he worked with friends to create demos for Action/RPG games on Amiga 500. In 1998, he was just 17 years old when he joined the ranks of Ubisoft Casablanca. Herein, he took his first steps as a Character Animator and later took flight as an Artistic Director for a Disney License. Since then, Mohamed has worked on major titles like "Rayman 3, Beyond Good and Evil, Prince off Persia: The Sands Of Time, Prince off Persia 3, Assassin's Creed 1 & 2" and "Assassin's Creed Brotherhood" as a Senior Level Artist and finally as an Artistic Director. To this day, Mohamed remains fascinated by video games, arts in general, traveling and discovering new cultures and places around the world.
