About me

Been working in the Animation and VFX business since 1988, where I started the very first 3D animation company in South Africa called DreamWave. We were using version 0.9 of Alias on the SGI 4D/20. Then went on to form The Refinery and BlackGinger. Now started the next wave VFX studio.. Cinegestix. Designed to take advantage of the talent pool across the world. With partners in South Africa, USA, Canada, India and New Zealand. No project is too small or too big. From TV commercials to Feature films. Specialized projects including AR, VR and all the R's in-between...
