3D intern

The Seventh Dwarf (2015)

I am a very passionate and dedicated artist with over 6 years experience in VFX for features, shorts and commercials. While I specialize mostly in compositing, I also have a background in 3D, where I am skilled and experienced especially in lighting. My good problem-solving skills usually come in handy when working on trickier shots, where I always try to come up with an efficient solution. Besides that, I possess very good communication and leadership skills, which helped me to quickly move into lead roles on various shows. I am also a part-time lecturer at university, where I teach lighting and compositing modules, as well as an occasional guest speaker for various companies and events, giving talks and presentations about Visual Effects.

I currently work at One Of Us in London as a 2D Supervisor on Sony/Marvel's "Morbius" and have previously worked on shows such as "The Lion King", "Christopher Robin", "Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom", "Assassin's Creed" and "Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi" at various companies, including Framestore and MPC. I started my career at scopas Medien AG in Frankfurt, Germany in February 2013, where I was a 3D intern and worked on the animated feature "The 7th Dwarf."
