Moonfall
Lighting TD
On the feature film Moonfall, I worked as a Lighting TD using Clarisse and Nuke, where I was responsible for the lighting setup and 3D sequence assembly across several full CG shots. My work included precise HDRI grading and the creation of advanced light rigs to achieve accurate scene illumination and seamless plate matching. I focused on render optimization to ensure both performance and high visual quality. I also produced compositing slap comps with advanced layering for look development and integration validation. Additionally, I provided mentorship and training to junior artists, supporting their successful integration into the lighting pipeline.
