Hi there, I am a well equipped and passionate 3D Lead Generalist and VFX Artist with a keen eye for detail, able to carry out all areas of production if called upon to do so, including, Modelling, Texturing, Animation, Rendering, Scripting,Troubleshooting all areas, Compositing and Editing (timing, storytelling).

I have a strong understanding and grip of:
Autodesk's Maya and 3dStudioMax
Adobe AfterEffects
The Foundry's Nuke
Adobe Photoshop
Adobe Premiere
Other software i am proficient at are:
Pixar's Renderman
Zbrush

I self-taught myself 3d Studio Max for around 8 years and then went for 2 years formal training at Lifeway School of Animation where i developed my 3d knowledge further in Maya.
I also have a strong understanding of Melscript and have created a procedural Auto-rig in the first 3 weeks of learning mel while at school and have been updating my auto-rig making it more flexible and adding stretchy rig to it as well as an advanced twist option.

Early 2009 i won the Auckland Technical Prize as part of the 2009 Hamburg Animation Awards with this animation

I love visual effects and cg imagery!! I especially love the challenge of working with film and intergrating cg into live action plates. Making a shot unique and fun and also making it advance technically is something i am always thinking about, making sure that shots have great aesthetics without ruining a brilliant story!
