Hire Me
Hi, I'm Laurence, nice to meet you.

I’m a Brit currently located in Canada. I currently hold a PR status in Canada.

I am looking to make a fresh start in the animation, VFX or computer games industry in a production role.
I want to move into the production side after 9 years working as a matchmove artist because I've always been fascinated by that side of the process. I feel that with the experience of being an artist and the skills I have learned as a matchmover; detail orientated, time management, communication, I will be an asset to any production team whether in VFX, TV, Animation or Games.

If you have any Production Assistant jobs available, please do not hesitate to contact me on this platform or via email. (lchongzh (at) gmail.com )
