About Steven

I help studios bring ideas and storyboards to life through high-quality previsualisation, rough layout and cinematic camera work.
With over 9 years in feature film and episodic production, I create dynamic sequences that support directors, editors and animators with clear storytelling, strong staging and camera rhythm.

What I bring:
• Fast, efficient previs & layout for storytelling decisions
• Smooth collaboration with directors, animation & editorial
• Technical mindset for pipeline optimisation + automation tools (Python)
• Experience across feature VFX, animation & postvis

I typically handle:
• Previs / Pitch sequences
• Rough layout & camera blocking
• Full CG layout & scene assembly
• Shot continuity, pacing & framing
• Postvis support for editorial

If you need someone who understands both vision and workflow, I can help you move from ideas → shots → sequences quickly and efficiently.
