Wendell & Wild

As a Lighting Cameraman on Wendell & Wild, my interactions with director Henry Selick was remotely enacted on Zoom due to Covid 19 isolation. Our mockup shots, then revised to locked camera angles were met with great respect with his vision because his abilities to say what he wanted and his critique was acute. The moody night lighting and winter chill detail was challenging with plenty of blue screen for compositing backgrounds and added complexity with interactive lantern lighting and action camera movement.

Here my various sequences included cemeteries, golf courses, underwater and interior country club during my 12 month involvement working closely with Supervising DP Peter Sorg.

The Boxtrolls

As a Lighting Cameraman on The Boxtrolls, I was able to take the sequences assigned and create unique looks and effects that needed various lighting transitions created with DMX programmed interactions and atmospheric integration with VFX fog and composited elements whether shooting on green screen or separate layers on the same set or different sets with needed alignments, and to allow for integration of CG extra characters added in the background when needed… All shot with multiple exposures per frame for 3D stereo.

Here are two of five major sequences that I was involved in for my 15 month involvement working closely with Supervising DP John Ashlee Prat.
