Experienced VFX Compositor | Specializing in High-End Films | Ready for International Opportunities

My Journey - 002 I planned a trip to Vancouver this past summer to visit my girlfriend. Since the Alpha Chromatica program is online, I figured I could study while traveling. But, as often happens, things didn’t go exactly as planned. Just days before my flight, I received a job offer to work as a freelancer on a movie—a one-and-a-half-month contract for my very first film project. Balancing work and study isn't uncommon, and I knew it was manageable for a short period. Here are my three key takeaways from this experience: 🗣️ Communication is Key It's crucial to fully understand the notes given to you. If something is unclear, don’t guess—ask. The sooner, the better; time is always ticking. Be clear and specific in your communication; no one is a mind reader. ⏱️ Time Management is Essential Learning to manage your time often means becoming comfortable with saying "no" and prioritizing tasks. This is a vital skill if you want to stay productive. It also includes planning for downtime and relaxation. Don’t underestimate the importance of sleep—a well-rested mind functions far better. 📝 Take Notes Don’t rely on memory alone—write things down. I like to confirm my understanding of my supervisor’s notes by giving a verbal recap of what the shot needs. I’ve envisioned working in film since the day I started my career in VFX, but the industry was in decline when I graduated with my Bachelor's in Digital Arts. Today, I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunities that have come my way. #VFXJobs #VFXCareers #CreativeTalent #CareerJourneyMM
