In the Fall of 2022, I joined the Animation Lab at the University of Texas at Dallas as a Lighting and Compositing artist to produce an animated short. I was given 5 shots to light, render, and composite within a 7-week time frame. I worked within the pipeline in a team setting for maximum efficiency and quality.

​

Each shot below was lit in Maya and rendered out in several layers using Arnold. I also determined a reasonable amount of AOVs within my renders in order to composite in Nuke with efficiency and ease.
