About

From Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

Hello! I'm Dean. I'm a Digital Compositor with experience in incorporating 2D and 3D stock and CGI multi-pass elements into live-action and animation plates. I am proficient in colour, depth, and perspective matching, and possess a critical eye for detail and a keen imaginative mind for overall image composition.

Additionally, I am a tertiary-level educator with multiple years of experience in film production and wider visual effects practices. I have a parallel career as a DOP/cam-op and post-production manager and have developed a broad range of technical skills for both on-set and post-production workflows. This experience has allowed me to develop a proficiency and understanding of Cine camera technology, RAW filetypes, colour grading, lens engineering, photographic elements and more.

I am highly collaborative, and willing to share knowledge to assist my colleagues through challenging technical circumstances. I also have a keen interest in emerging real-time technologies and solutions and am looking forward to my next opportunity in visual effects.
