About Me

My photo
Sydney, NSW, Australia
Andy's interest in all aspects of CGI began in 1996. He was soon creating original artwork and running his own business with promo flyers and wedding videos. Now working VFX post production for over 12 years in Sydney's top post houses. Professional highlights include blockbuster/major release film work and high profile TV commercials. Andy has contributed VFX skills to several short films, promotional, corporate, music videos, and recently directed 3 short films. Employed primarily as a 3D animator and matte painter, Andy has professional 2D and 3D workflow knowledge and experience within team production environments. These skills have proven to be a valuable resource when working on-set. Andy is enjoying his time in post production, and always on the lookout for more and exciting new challenges.
