Frozen

Lighting and Compositing.
This was a one-off shot. Integrated 8 different effects passes for the snowflake burst. Repositioned the castle and mountain to enhance composition. Extra touches: Glints, subtle color gradation on the snow FX, ramping up the sky satruation as it is cleared.
Tools:
Dlight, Renderman, Nuke

This was the key shot establishing the look of the entrance to Elsa's Ice palace.

Lighting Artist
A classic Disney transformation shot! For this, I had the opportunity to establish a unique look for Elsa's magic effect, Olaf's cloud, and the lighting effect on its surroundings.
Extra touch: When the cloud appears, the burst of light on the ground is shaped like Elsa's signature snowflake.
Tools:
DLight, Renderman, Nuke

Lighting and Compositing
In this series of shots, Gogo escapes from a cage made of Microbots. It was a fun challenge to light the inside of the cage, where the only light sources were Gogo's helmet and wheels.
Creative touches: Lens flare on the closeup shot of Gogo's feet, the "hot iron" glow along the path Gogo cuts through the cage.
Tools:
Dlight, Hyperion, Nuke

Wreck-It Ralph
Lighting Artist
This was the first of a series of shots I worked on featuring Ralph and Gene arguing over a cake. I worked with Lookdev to dial in the look of the cake frosting, and created a comp setup for the burning sparklers that was used by several other shots.

Tangled Pantene Pro V
Lighting Artist
Lookdev, Lighting, Compositing, Matte Painting
This is from Tangled-themed Pantene Pro V commercial. I collaborated with a Hair TD to establish a unique look for the hair based on live-action refs, from discussing the shape and flowy movement, to dialing in a smoother, shinier hair shader than what appears in the movie. I also painted the sky bg.
