Experience

  • Lead character modeler at la Fabrique d'images
    Luxembourg, Luxembourg
    April 2010 - December 2016

    Currently Lead of the character dept working on an animated feature. overseeing the modeling ,grooming (yeti) and texture/Look . I have moved between posts and developed quite a general profile. I would consider myself a generalist with good all round knowledge of Production. I am mostly focused on organic modeling/lookdev and am experienced with yeti for grooms.
