Prior to my time Storyboarding I spent 8 years working in post production in animation, television and feature as a roto/paint artist and compositor.
I worked primarily in After Effects, Nuke, and Mocha Pro.
My time in this side of the production process proved useful after my transition into Story, equipping me with a mindfulness of how decisions made in Pre-Production can have positive and negative affects later on through the pipeline.
