Starting out as a graffiti artist in the 90s, my interest in typography and graphic design led me to study communication design in 2004. While I earned my street credibility as an image maker early, I soon taught myself the skills of modern film production such as video editing, colour grading, motion graphics and cinematography.
During the process of producing music videos and small motion design projects, I became increasingly interested in high-end visual effects. I was blown away by the ability to manipulate images with Apple Shake, which I learned from the included manual.
Since 2020, after many years of working as a digital compositor on high-profile films, I have finally returned to the essence of image creation by moving into look development,
still using Foundry's Nuke as my main software package.
