Hey, my name is Jerom.

I’m currently a Nuke Compositor at RISE | Visual Effects Studios. I previously worked at ColorOffOn as a Nuke Compositor as well as On-Set Supervision & ACES Implementation. Before that, I was a Nuke Compositor at Platige Image for the Netflix show "The Witcher" & as several Game Cinematics and a Nuke & Flame Artist at digital STRAIK for commercials.

I graduated in January 2017 with my Master degree in Compositing at Escape Studios. Next to my Master module, I led a compositing team of seven artists in London for the German short film ‘Mascarpone’ while working on my own shots for the short film.

During my study, I started working as a Compositing Studio Assistant at Escape Studios to assist the tutor and support the students with their shots during and after the class.

Before attending the master study I learned the fundamentals of filmmaking during my bachelor study.
If I’m not working on manipulating or enhancing moving images I like to travel and meet new people.
