My name is Michael Viera. I have been working as a Compositing Supervisor for the past 4 years, but still work on shots to keep myself relevant. I have a strong background and understanding in most facets of the visual effects pipeline. My strengths are my organization, communication, and time management. I pride myself in my ability to help others, finding creative solutions, and details…it’s all about the details. Previously, I've worked on live action & feature animated films, television, and commercials. There's no shot too big or small to put 100% of myself into.

I am eager to be inspired, inspire others, learn new things, and share things that I have learned
