HOD Matchmove / 17 yrs
France
I'm Walid Ben Henda, founder of Vision Age VFX, and a specialist in Matchmove, On-Set Supervision, and pipeline optimization with nearly two decades of experience in the VFX industry. My journey started in 2007 after earning my Master’s degree in Media Engineering from the Université de Toulon. I began my career at Realviz as a product specialist in 3D tracking and on-set mocap solutions — an experience that gave me strong foundations in camera tracking and visual geometry.
Over the years, I’ve worked with major studios across Europe, including Scanline VFX, Trixter, Digital District, Benuts, ACE Image Factory, and many more. I've contributed to some of the most iconic productions of the past decade, including Thor: Ragnarok, Black Panther, Spiderman: Homecoming, Lost in Space, Jim Knopf, Andor, Foundation, Aquaman, and Meg 2. As Head of Department at both Trixter and Scanline, I led matchmove teams through complex sequences and tight schedules, ensuring accuracy, speed, and production-ready data.
In 2019, I launched Vision Age VFX to offer high-level matchmove, rotoscopy, rotoanim, and cleanup services with certified pipelines and a flexible remote-ready structure. We’ve built strong relationships with global clients, delivering consistent quality with a deep understanding of production challenges.
Alongside production, I’m passionately exploring the integration of Artificial Intelligence into VFX workflows. I’m currently developing IDARA, our AI-powered platform that analyzes shots, estimates task complexity, and helps studios plan and assign tasks based on artist capabilities and data-driven insights. This tool reflects my vision for a smarter, more transparent production pipeline — not just in post, but from pre-production through delivery.
With roots in France and now operating from the UAE, I continue to build bridges between creative teams, clients, and emerging technologies — always aiming to push boundaries and empower the next generation of talent in VFX and tech.
