I worked as the 3D Supervisor for an animated short film titled "Kooky's Halloween Party". My role was to guide a team of 3D artists to create assets for use in 3D backgrounds which would be composited with 2D animation. In addition to those duties, I also handled the majority of the layout, set dressing, and lighting of the scenes.
