About

I am a Freelance VFX Supervisor and Creative Director working as a freelance VFX Supervisor with over 15 years experience working on films and HETV series in London.

I enjoy creative challenges, consulting on shot design, planning and finding the best methodology for the shot or sequence in pre-production. I love being on set, working with the director and DOP as well as producers and department heads, making sure everything that is needed for a seamless transition to post is captured, either by me or a dedicated data wrangler team. I have a decade of experience in photogrammetry and set surveying, whether that is outdoors, drone/aerial or in the studio. I always dedicate some of my time to capturing texture references and surveying/documenting props and sets for maximum accuracy in captured data for the vendors. I enjoy experimenting with new filmmaking technology processes, whether it is Virtual Production, Motion Capture, Volumetric Capture or Gaussian Splatting or other emerging techniques.

Some of the productions I worked on include the upcoming Black Doves, Renegade Nell, Guardians of the Galaxy, The Martian, Avengers: Age of Ultron, Ghost In The Shell, Blade Runner 2049 and Pacific Rim: Uprising and many others - see my IMDB page for list of credits.
