Lighting TD

On Fast X, I worked as a Lighting TD, contributing to high-intensity action shots involving exploding helicopters, cars, and dynamic vehicle sequences using Clarisse and Nuke. I was responsible for adjusting vehicle highlights, optimizing motion blur, and updating multiple FX iterations to ensure seamless integration and visual consistency. I addressed Lighting Supervisor notes, refining the lighting to align with the show’s artistic direction and performed precise plate matching to integrate CG elements with live-action footage. I also created compositing slap comps using advanced layering techniques for look development and validation. Additionally, I supported new and junior artists by providing mentorship and guidance throughout the pipeline.
