I help VFX, animation, and creative production studios design, build, and modernize their technical pipelines, bridging traditional CGI workflows with AI-driven tools.

With 25+ years of production experience (MPC, Jellyfish, Framestore; credits on The Lion King, Mufasa, Snow White) and deep technical skills in C++, Python, Maya, and Houdini, I bring a rare combination: I understand both the creative production floor and the code that runs underneath it.

Pipeline architecture audits and bottleneck diagnosis

Custom tool development (compositing, rigging, asset management, orchestration)

Integrating generative AI (image/video models) into existing production workflows

USD/3D viewport and cloud-pipeline strategy

Legacy pipeline modernization and technical debt reduction

Technical due diligence for studios evaluating AI adoption

Format: Remote consulting, async or live sessions, project-based or ongoing retainer.

Ideal for: VFX/animation studios, creative tech startups, and production teams that need senior-level pipeline expertise without a full-time hire.
