VFX
SUPERVISOR

Being a visual effects supervisor is more than just coordinating artists, it's solving problems.

Ideally the VFX supervisor is brought in for the pre-production phase where I would coordinate with other departments to see where vfx and practical elements merge. On set during production, myself and potential team will collect on set data to be used in the post production process and coordinate with the camera department to make sure everything is shot in a manner to best assist the vfx artist/artists.

During post-production, with my connections to various vfx houses outside of the country, I will handle putting together your vfx team at the lowest possible rate and will coordinate all the vfx side of the post-production for you. All you need to do is communicate your needs to me and I will handle the rest.

What separates me from the rest is my knowledge not only in all stages of the vfx process from fx to cg and shading to compositing, but my intuitive knowledge in all aspects of film making. This allows me to properly oversee every level of the vfx process in post-production as well as properly supervising my department on set and being able to adapt and make adjustments where needed on the fly.

On-Set VFX
SUPERVISOR

The most important part of any VFX pipeline

If you solely need someone to be on set during production to make sure everything is properly captured for vfx artists later on, I would be more than happy and capable to help you. I of course have the usual gear such as a HDRI chrome and matte sphere and Macbeth color charts, but I also have lidar scanning equipment and 360 degree cameras and witness cameras.

Having a extensive vfx background and knowledge in all areas of the vfx pipeline allows me to know exactly what data your vfx artists will need from set as well as how they are going to want you to shoot it and organize it.

Time on set where a vfx shot is not being filmed I will spend collecting as much on set data as possible (3D photogrammetry and lidar scans, photos, videos, etc.), organizing data collected and creating vfx mockups from dailies that can be super helpful when presenting them to future vfx artists.

No 'free time' will be wasted.

Compositing

The most creative part of any vfx pipeline

Contrary to what people outside of the vfx space might believe, I strongly believe that compositing is both the most important stage in the post production vfx process as well as the most difficult to master. A good compositor, when provided with the correct data and cg passes, can both elevate a fully cg shot way beyond what came out of the render as well as create vfx shots much more believable than what most cg artists can create, but even more important, a good compositor with a properly set up comp can allow for quicker turn around times and revisions than what can be provided from cg artist and their renders.

I have more than 10 years behind my compositing skills and I know tons of tricks of the trade to help deliver your vfx shot to you quickly and with professional quality.

I have the ability to create professional composites and I believe that comes from my creative technical thinking, problem solving and familiarity with the software and tools, but I also believe it comes from my ability to know when something looks right and more importantly when and why something looks wrong.

CG, FX And
Simulations

The most technical part of any vfx pipeline

As a seasoned visual effects artist, I specialize in creating cutting-edge CG environments, photorealistic FX, and dynamic simulations. Whether it's crafting lifelike digital characters, generating complex particle systems, or simulating natural elements like fire, water, and smoke, I deliver high-quality visual effects that enhance storytelling and elevate your project to new heights. My expertise in industry-leading tools ensures seamless integration of visual effects into live-action footage, providing a polished and immersive final product tailored to your creative vision.

Having knowledge of the the whole vfx pipeline and what passes and data the compositor will want from me as a cg artist allows the whole vfx pipeline to work quickly and efficiently.

Virtual
Production

There is no better way to visualize the visual effect than in camera

If you solely need someone to be on set during production to make sure everything is properly captured for vfx artists later on, I would be more than happy and capable to help you. I of course have the usual gear such as a HDRI chrome and matte sphere and Macbeth color charts, but I also have lidar scanning equipment and 360 degree cameras and witness cameras.

AI Manipulation Generation
And Automation

Keeping workflows quick while keeping quality high

Going to University for both film production (University of Miami) and for computer science (University of Central Florida), I have a lot of knowledge when it comes to machine learning in the vfx field.

My introduction to using machine learning in vfx was from the early days of generative ai in vfx, using a Deepfake in 2017 to replace the face of someone in the Drex Carter music video Nandina with someone who had passed away.

I am frequently training bespoke models on larger vfx projects to help speed up and enhance my vfx workflow while maintaining proper bit depth, quality and control that general models aren't able to provide.

VFX
Studio Space

A spacious green screen studio you to work out of for your project

I am the owner of a 2,500 sqft studio space, 1,250 sqft of which is a dedicated film studio space with modular sets, a industry standard light grid and a large green screen cyclorama.

This studio space also has virtual production capabilities both on green screen and on the large 80 inch tv that is on a wheelable stand within the studio. This acts as a portable LED Virtual Production Volume and be positioned where needed.

One Man
VFX Team

Plain and simple. No need to complicate your life. As long as you have the time, I have the ability

Because most VFX artists in the studio and film world specialize in one section of the VFX workflow, most films and commercials need to hire a VFX studio with tens to hundreds of employees to complete even a single VFX shot. For that reason, even a simple composite-only VFX shot can quickly balloon into thousands of dollars. While this traditional approach has its benefits, primarily speed, many lower-budget projects simply cannot afford to go this route.

As a skilled VFX generalist, I can tackle any problem you need at a fraction of the cost. This approach will be the most affordable option for you, provided your project has the time.

What sets me apart from other VFX generalists, aside from my attention to detail and technical ability, is that I am not an 'influencer' VFX artist. My skills are firmly rooted in the professional VFX workflow and are seamlessly integrated with your post-production team. I understand color spaces, I use CG passes for flexibility in compositing, and I know exactly what data needs to be collected on set to make the best possible product as efficiently as possible. I understand that the producer wants things done quickly and cheaply, while the director wants the best possible result.

If you think a one-person VFX team is the right fit for your project, then I believe I am the person for the job.
