About me

***LOOKING FOR FULL-TIME REMOTE POSITIONS***
I am a 3D & Visual Effects artist with experience on feature films, TV and real-time. I've worked on a wide range of productions such as Paramount's Sherlock Gnomes, Aardman's Early Man, Hitman: Agent 47, Point Break, BBC's Dr Who to name a few.
With a generalist background, I've specialized in lookdev & lighting for visual effects and animation as well as high-end architectural visualization (images, films and VR): modelling/texturing, camera tracking, crowd, mocap and keyframe animation, lighting/rendering and compositing.
In my spare time, I love speed-building all kinds of environment with Unreal Engine.
I am always on the lookout for new opportunities in the fields of video games, animation and visual effects.
