01 · Craft

Filmakademie

Film and VFX craft grounding at Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg in Germany. The floor-facing instincts (colour, review, delivery) come from that side of the house as much as from TD work.

02 · Teaching

Lucerne teaching

Taught at Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts (HSLU), including CG / VFX schedule and craft material. Teaching keeps the explanations honest: if you cannot demo it, it is not a pipeline.
