About me

I am a 3D Artist currently working as a Lighting TD in a VFX Studio in Soho. I am very passionate about 3D design and am continuously researching new techniques and software tools to attain the highest visual standards.

My passion for 3D began in school where I spent a great deal of time trying to learn Pro Desktop and other CAD packages. Because I thought of myself as quite creative throughout school (and was also a severe geek) I found 3D/CAD to be just right for me.
A few years later I then moved on to experimenting with various other packages such as Lightwave and 3D Studio Max - I have since resided to using Maya as my primary choice in 3D design software and have used it for a range of different freelance projects as well as in an industrial environment.

My freelance experience covers Product Visualisation, Children's TV, Promotional music videos and Architectural Visualisation while my industry experience has been mainly focused on feature films. Titles I have worked on include Clash of the Titans, Prince of Persia, Marmaduke and John Carter of Mars.
