I would love the opportunity to earn my stripes as a compositor and get to be a part of making fictional worlds come to life.

I've been fascinated with film for as long as I can remember, but I started to take a real interest in it as one of my GCSEs in high school. Post-production was always the biggest draw to me and as I learned about VFX in college I knew it was what I wanted to pursue. The Matrix is the standout film that influenced me to become a VFX artist. VFX was essential to conveying the narrative and building the world in that film and it used a lot of revolutionary techniques to reach that goal.
