VFX and Games
Published on
Visual Effects (VFX)
I worked in VFX industry for 12 years in London and Sydney.
It started when I saw the early shots of Iron Man at the Lucasfilm/ILM studio
in Singapore (I was in the Lucas game division then) and ended more than
a decade later when we finished Avengers: Endgame.
I realised then that this was also the end of my game. Thank you Marvel
for paying half of my mortgage.
Working in VFX was a blast, I loved every bit of it with all its
imperfections. But I knew it was time for me to do something else.
This page is more of a record for myself and occasional friends who are interested.
I sometimes forget which movies I've worked on, it was that many!

Games
I worked for about 4 years in video games industry, in Melbourne and Singapore. The games I worked on:
- Nicktoons Unite! (2005) — Nintendo GameCube and Sony PS2
- Nicktoons: Battle for Volcano Island (2006) — Nintendo GameCube and Sony PS2
- Star Wars: The Clone Wars - Jedi Alliance (2008) — Nintendo DS
Fun facts: I watched the entire three seasons of SpongeBob (plus some Danny Phantom and The Fairly OddParents) when I worked on the Nicktoons games. I also watched the entire Star Wars movies when I began working on the Clone Wars game (no I never watched them before that). Because research.
