I am an experienced Nuke compositor with an artistic vision and a diverse knowledge. I sought and had the pleasure to work on a very wide range of projects : biggest box office hits, animation franchises, video game cinematics, high end commercials , new video game announcement videos, stereoscopic conversions, highest frame rate and resolution stereo shot movie, title sequences, VR etc
I also enjoy traveling and living in new places. I am social and make friends easily. I have unforgettable experiences from my work in New York, LA, Vancouver, London, Beijing, Bangkok (also Florida, New Mexico, Louisiana).
