From Storyboard to Screen
One of the best aspects of working for an extended period with a small team was the opportunity to oversee projects from inception to completion. I truly appreciate the experience gained through direct conversations with the Director and Producers regarding their vision, and then devising a plan to execute it, either on my own or alongside a talented team of artists from around the globe that I’ve been fortunate to cultivate over time.
