I had the luck to work with Andrew for several months during fantastic beasts 2. He is extremely talented, very smart, easy to work with artist. A very technical profile mixed with keen eye, not easy to find. His skills with Houdini and Vex have really made the show easy. He has been taking more and more responsibility, becoming the key person for the environments in the show. Amazing work. Thanks!

      A generalist environment tds role can be quite broad, creating environments from existing build or sometimes from nothing. Tasks include build, layout and lighting of cg environments. Main focus is using Houdini for procedural build and layout tasks. Lighting is in either Houdini Mantra or Clarisse. Work is often technical using coding and maths to achieve visual goals which can be art directed.
