After a time brought in full time, a nice change from the freelance life, and have been working on many projects since. Transitioned across 3 location changes as the studio grew, culminating with full work from home with the lockdowns. Started as basic but skilled artist, but within little time was given whole sequences/looks across seasons of shows to manage. I avoided bumping up to a lead/sup role to maintain my ability to just focus on the problem-solving puzzle that is the shots themselves and avoid all the meetings. Feel comfortable being the "go to" person for troubled shots, or needing to bring a sequence into balance. Happy to assist, give advice to anyone who asks, as I have been given much useful advice/help over the years, so I feel the need to pass mine on if wanted.
