Having worked at post production houses with clients from a variety of production companies and broadcasters, I feel that my skills and experience can be useful on the production side as well, to make the process of VFX easier, better and more cost-effective.

• Meeting with potential VFX vendors and getting bids based on these breakdowns
• Assisting directors with storyboarding and creative and technical direction of VFX

• Gathering of on-set data to assist the VFX in post
