Hi all, I am currently looking for a position as Junior FX TD / ATD (Assistant Technical Director) - either or a combination of both. Preferably in the London area but I am interested to hear about other locations as well. I have MA degrees in Game Art and Digital Effects (Bournemouth University NCCA), as well as a combined 2,5 years of work experience in the Game and VFX industries. Aside from my FX work I have been in ATD training at Double Negative Visual Effects in London, which I have successfully completed.

Within python development specifically, we covered python, PyQT, as well as code management and deployment using Git, Stash and Jenkins. I built a number of small tools for Maya, Houdini and Linux as per training, as well as automation scripts to decrease workload.
