Currently a DFX Supervisor and Head of FX/CFX, I have more than 20 years of experience in the VFX and Animation industries, working on all project sizes and types ranging from feature films, commercials, and TV shows to video games and immersive media. I am a 47th annual Annie award nominee for best Visual Effects.My skillset include DFX/CG supervision, Team mentoring, FX/CFX/Crowd pipeline support and design, team leadership and effective Houdini training through my very own tailored Houdini Teaching Program.Whilst working on any given Project, being that a feature film or a short with limited budget, I am constantly and genuinely driven by curiosity and excited to fully understand the client's vision and work together with all departments to deliver the highest final quality on time while optimizing and managing the available resources and costs. When not working in production I would be mentoring or hosting classes and masterclasses. I'm a specialized and certified trainer who, for over two decades, has started by training professionals on Softimage|3D and Lightscape and then focusing on Houdini Training during the last decade to hundreds of Post Grad students and VFX professionals migrating from other DCCs. My passion as a VFX/CG Trainer has always been sharing knowledge, push students/Artists over their limits and share my expertise with the next generation of VFX artists.Let's talk opportunities to collaborate.JC
