GUARDIANS OF GA’HOOLE

Mat McCosker has worked mainly in film visual effects for the past 17 years or so.

From working on independent Australian films such as Mimi, directed by Warwick Thornton, through to the more mainstream films such as Harry Potter, he remains interested in the full production spectrum for various creative and story-telling possibilities.

For the last few years he has, however, particularly found himself drawn to children's animation & story-telling.
