Experience

My professional work experiences listed are:

Working on a multi award winning show called ‘Pop Paper City’ as a Junior Lighting and Render Artist, conveying emotion and storytelling through weather effects and time of day. Highlights and depth of field were used to draw the viewers eye as well as animating light sources to add depth and diversity to particular shots within episodes.
Creating thousands of 3D renders for an award winning bathroom company based in Glasgow called Wholesale Domestic, working under the title of Junior CGI Artist. This role involved working from 2D CAD drawings and creating 3D replicas of products to be used as display on the company website. Renders had to be accurate and easy to read as their main purpose was to showcase the products being sold in a organised manner to make online shopping more enjoyable for users.
