Visualisation Camera Layout Supervisor
Supervisor Layout / Previz
Edinburgh, United Kingdom
Hire Me
I am a 3d artist with 20 years feature film, interactive and broadcast production experience. I specialise in the latest visualisation techniques, camera supervision, project management, visual effects concept development, technical visualisation, digital cinematography, VFX Supervision, motion capture direction and motion control preparation.
Over the last few years I have taken projects from pre visualisation, through to technical visualisation and on set supervision, then onto postviz and through to final shots.
I have been supervising high profile feature projects and running teams for 12 years. I like to take a great interest in the HR process of each job to ensure the show has a well balanced team to complete the work to the highest standard possible, including laking time to mentor more junior members with the assistance of my Lead artists. On my this show we hired 4 Trainees straight out of University to train up in the ever changing world of Visualisation
I have been Layout and Final Camera Supervisor on two large studio Animated Features - “Sherlock Gnomes” and “The Lego Ninjago Movie” , as well as various full CG shorts.
My main passion is for cinematography, I enjoy the challenge of both live action shoot preparation and natural feeling layout and final layout lensing, polish and movement.
I have worked within large graphics facilities (Animal Logic, MPC, Mikros, Prime Focus, BaseFX, Passion Pictures), several Previz Companies (Proof, Nvizage, Third Floor, Day for Nite) and designed pipeline structures to improve previz and layout tasks into existing work- flows as well as setting up bespoke pipelines independently for feature film onsite productions.
I am always looking for fresh challenges into the future of cinematography, with a particular interest in virtual production (VP / XR / Engine) as, I believe, it sets a new paradigm in the way in which content is created an managed, leading to entirely new pipelines in the industry.
I have had extensive experience with virtual production, having designed a motion trackable screen system running realtime content on set for “Kingsmen : The Secret Service' and Netflix sci-fi show "Nightflyers", both occasions working with VFX veteran Kevin Tod Haug.
I have recently wrapped up on “Anansi Boys” - A huge Amazon TV series - We used a state of the art LED volume (the biggest in Europe) which required tight integration between VFX, VP and Art. My role was split between Supervising a virtual art department and an end to end Visualisation team.
On my this show we hired 4 Trainees straight out of University to train up in the ever changing world of Visualisation, with help of Epic games and Screen Scotland
