Before I was a cinematographer, I spent nearly a decade working alongside directors and cinematographers on some of the industry's largest television and film productions — helping them understand what their films could look like creatively, and how to achieve that practically within budget, using virtual production methodologies on and off the LED volume. Working in lighting, color, mood, and tone, I helped bridge physical and CG production — guiding each side to match and blend seamlessly into the other, using light and color to support the story. It's an approach I carry into every project I shoot today.
