Supervision
Good compositing isn't just about what looks right on a monitor. It's about what holds up when a shot gets integrated into a sequence, handed to another artist, or put under a supervisor's notes.
That's the standard this work is evaluated against.
What you'll find here are shots produced under my supervision across accredited post-secondary programs and independent training environments. Every decision — integration, image coherence, shot-level problem solving — was made under real production constraints, not controlled classroom conditions.
All work is credited to the artist who made it.

Alpha Chromatica | Advanced VFX Compositing Program (Certificate)
Small cohort. Direct supervision. Every shot evaluated against real production standards.
I designed the curriculum, taught the program, and supervised all the compositing work shown here. Alpha Chromatica is a boutique VFX training studio built around one idea: that serious artists need real feedback, not just instruction.
All work is credited to the artist who made it.

Lost Boys | Advanced VFX Compositing Program (Diploma)
When Covid hit, I converted the entire program from a studio-based Linux workflow to a remote one without interrupting student delivery. That's the kind of problem this teaching is built for.
This work was produced during my time as Program Lead for the Advanced VFX Compositing Diploma at Lost Boys Studios, an accredited post-secondary institution in British Columbia. I owned curriculum design, instruction, and compositing supervision. Work was assessed against institutional and production-aligned standards.

Lost Boys | Digital Lighting Artist Program
(Certificate)
Sony Pictures Imageworks asked us to build a lighting program from the ground up. I built it.
That meant independently developing the entire technical foundation — asset creation, Python scripting, Katana lighting templates, macros, and shader development across Arnold, V-Ray, and RenderMan.
While that was happening, I was also teaching Nuke compositing for the program's first classes and converting the pipeline from studio-based Linux to a Windows remote workflow when Covid hit.
All work is credited to the artist who made it.

Lost Boys | Advanced VFX Compositing Program (Diploma)
Early work from my time as Program Lead for the Advanced VFX Compositing Diploma at Lost Boys Studios.
Curriculum design, instruction, and compositing supervision — the same standards applied here as in everything that followed.

2014
Lost Boys | Advanced Visual Effects Production (Diploma)
Where the standards started.
This was my first program lead role at Lost Boys Studios — curriculum design, instruction in VFX fundamentals, and co-supervision. The supervisory approach developed here was refined across every program that followed.
All work is credited to the artist who made it.
