Orbital Studios
Production Intern
August 2024 - December 2024
As a production intern at Orbital Studios, I've gained hands-on experience operating an LED Volume using software like Pixera, Unreal Engine's Switchboard, and more. I’ve also learned previs techniques such as greyboxing for planning upcoming short films. Separately, on set, I got the chance to work closely with the Director and Director of Photography. I applied their creative feedback in real-time to the animations used in production, gaining firsthand insight into the collaborative workflow environment of VAD and the Production team. This role has deepened my technical skills and understanding of the virtual production process and will continue to do so throughout this year.

VAD Director & VFX Supervisor
August 2023 - May 2024
Countless hours were spent hoping everything would work out, and thankfully, it did. The entire team pushed the limits of what was possible with the technology available, using Disguise, Unreal Engine, and Chapman University's LED wall. These powerhouses combined allowed us to bring the planet Sacron onto the big screen. Early in the project, I took on the VFX Supervisor and VAD Director role. Little did I know how mentally taxing and time-consuming it would be to approach Virtual Production, but we did it. Thank you to all the mentors we had along the way and the professors who guided us to the finish line. None of this would have been possible without the team never giving up hope despite all the curveballs thrown at us.

Virtual Production 101
Lightcraft Jetset
June  2024 - August 2024
What is Virtual Production? How do you produce a film that relies so heavily on Virtual Production? This is a video I created to pitch a series that would follow the ins and outs of Virtual Production using the technology of Lightcraft Jetset. Lightcraft Jetset is a company that allows indie filmmakers to bring ICVFX with just an iPhone.
