SHOOT and DIRECTION

Hiring an animation supevisor early on is always best to make sure not only the previz is shot properly, but that the performance is set correctly for the director in previz to make sure that once we are in post, the vendors have a clear guide and get the work done with minimum changes.

PRE AND POST PRODUCTION

When it come sto heavy visual effects shows, having the animation supervisor in pre-production is key to cutting cost whilst setting up everything from helping with script breakdown, storyboarding, character design, hiring visual effects vendors, etc.

In Post-production, many studios are finding that having the animation supervisor client side is becoming more commonly accepted and cost effective considering most shows involve multiple vendors.

A broad term, virtual cinematography means many things. From camera choices, staging and composition to performance, in visual effects virtual cinematography is key to delivering properly fleshed out shots and sequences. Either shot on the volume, or sequences created from previz, or even previz itself, my background can help you get the best results. I have been involved, someitmes heavily in may aspects of this department for many years.

VIRTUAL CINEMATOGRAPHY

MOTION CAPTURE /
PERFORMANCE CAPTURE

Having recently shot all of the mocap for Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, I casted, planned and shot 2 full sets of shoots which can be seen in the movie. With the continuing change in landscape on what tools we are using, the direction stays the same. How to bring any of these tools to deliver the performance wanted. Past works I have done that required mocap and Pcap are Fast & Furious 9, Alita Batlle angel, War for the Planet of the Apes, etc.

ON-SET SHOOT

With decades working with major studios, I have amassed an understanding of what my clients want. Late night On-Set shoots are no problem, in fact I thrive on the one on one with Directors and Execs to make sure they shoot what is needed while limiting pickups and reshoots.

ANIMATION SUPERVISION

Supervision and animation have become a staple of my work, making sure we deliver the highest quality animation for clients.
