Visual Effects Specialist
When I joined the VFX industry in 1998, I was immediately fascinated by the unique combination of talents that is required to complete successful shots. The combination of interesting people, art and science makes VFX a very special kind of work. Today, I am still seeking the thrill of doing what was deemed impossible only a short time ago. This explains my continued commitment to VFX, but also my passion about photography and cinematography. These so-called 'traditional' fields are now being transformed to their core by new technology, creating a brave new world just begging to be explored.
If your team is composed of interesting people and you need to solve cutting edge challenges involving a healthy mix of art and technique, I'm sure my experience can help.
