Bio
Andrew Zeller
Kankuro has come a long way in his career as a Compositor to become first-class. When I started teaching him at Lost Boys, he was brand new to visual effects, but eager to learn. Working late, asking questions, and actively seeking to fully understand how everything worked (not just the quick fixes that some students prefer), Kankuro rapidly expanded his knowledge and skills. Now he's worked at multiple studios on a wide range of movies and television shows, and has crafted a really solid professional Compositing reel. He remains one of the most humble artists I have ever met, despite reaching a level of skill where he can now teach others. I always enjoy hearing his updates and seeing what has been added to his reel. If you're looking for someone professional, focused, and dedicated to completing all of the notes for a shot, then I highly recommend Kankuro for your project or studio.
