Shelley Friel

I would love to work at a company that works on films, see my name in a movie theater one day.

I think I always knew that I wanted to work in the arts, but I didn't pursue film/entertainment until the end of high school. I went to SCAD originally for animation but quickly changed course to Visual Effects when I realized that is where my passion is. I fell in love with lighting and the idea that an entire shot can be changed just how it's lit. I have always pointed out lens flares in movies or games, I love photo mode in games, so I should not be surprised that I love what I'm doing.
