Oct 2013 - Apr 2015
From lighting to lookdev through pre-compositing, I've been working on Maleficient, Guardians, Exodus and Jungle Book, using Katana, Nuke and Renderman. I work on the integration of complex CG elements, characters and FX in shots but also in the look development of hairy characters for Jungle Book. This is a heavily team work accomplishment, with other artists, leads and supervisors in order to achieve stunning and high quality visual effects.

Sep 2012 - Sep 2013
The last year of ESMA school was dedicated to the creation of a short movie, where I was co-director with four others students. I was responsible of the schedule, team management and pipeline production during the whole project. This was a really enlightening team project where I was mainly in charge of lighting, shading, rendering and compositing with Seraphin Guery. I've also worked on characters modeling and assets texturing. The last year of ESMA school was dedicated to the creation of a short movie, where I was co-director with four others students.
