I am working my last couple days on G-Force which was quite an experience. It was the longest I have worked on a film so far, just shy of 9 months of lighting and compositing. I am wrapping up with about 28 shots that I lit and comped and then a few that I helped out on. It was a really hard show at times with some fairly complex compositing but I learned a ton and really feel l improved a lot over the duration of the movie.

My next project starts on 06-01-09 and is Alice in Wonderland directed by the one and only Tim Burton. I am super excited to get started and can't wait to see how it turns out.

I finished working on Eagle Eye a couple months ago. I think only one shot ened up making it into the final moive. Right now I am working on G-Force which comes out in mid 2009. My demo reel is now updated with work from Speed Racer.

I am now working on Eagle Eye for about a month mostly compositing on a few shots. There is a lot of tracking, retiming, roto type work to be done. So far it has been a good learning experience and nice refresher on using Shake.

New site is live and just about done. Still some small things to work on and some more content to add. If you needed to get to my old site for some reason it is still up for a bit. The address to see it is www.respiremonami.com. I will be removing it and pointing that URL to this site in the next couple weeks though.
