I BEGAN MY FILM CAREER AS A MODEL-MAKER AT DIGITAL DOMAIN, BOTH IN EUROPE AND THE UNITED STATES. MY ROLE INVOLVED CONSTRUCTING SCALE MODELS AFTER PRINCIPAL PHOTOGRAPHY HAD CONCLUDED, ENCOMPASSING A WIDE RANGE OF MINIATURES USED FOR BLUE AND GREEN SCREEN SETS.

WE EMPLOYED DIVERSE MATERIALS, FROM BALSA TO AUTHENTIC HARDWOOD, AND OUR PROCESS ENCOMPASSED EVERYTHING FROM CREATING MOLDS WE SCULPTED TO PAINTING THE MODELS. OUR WORK DREW INSPIRATION FROM HISTORIC PLANS SOURCED FROM MUSEUMS AND ON-SET PHOTOS, WHICH WE USED TO ACCURATELY SCALE OUR MODELS. THIS IS TRULY A CHERISHED ART FORM THAT I HAVE A DEEP PASSION FOR.

ENJOY!
