Early on, I Completed my Bachelor of Design (BDes) and then followed up with a Post Graduate Diploma in 3D Animation. Coupled with my love of film, Graphic novels and Illustration, it has given me a very solid foundation and a fine understanding of strong composition and Design which translates perfectly into my creative process of story telling, problem solving and shot making in the ultimate goal of producing beautiful cinematography.
