CINEMATIC | VFX | PERFORMANCE

David started his VFX career working on the third instalment of the Harry Potter series, Troy and Thunderbirds. His eager ‘can do’ attitude and aptitude for CGI propelled him up through the ranks during a golden period of commercial VFX. He worked on all of Daniel Kleinman’s biggest spots from 2004-2008. Consistently pushing the boundaries of technology, David had a key role in pioneering the use of CG Fur, Feathers, and Fluid Simulations in commercials at a time when these techniques were in their infancy. So often, peers in film would drop by asking ‘how?!’.

An expert in the world of VR, David has also created live action experiential content for Marriott, Volvo and Chick-Fil-A’s integrated campaign ‘Cowz VR’. In both CG and Design VFX creative direction he has collaborated with Oscar winning director Tom Hooper for Dell ‘Tech Stories’, overseen collaborations with FCA for Alfa Romeo ‘Whoa There’, along with AT&T’s ‘The Power of &’ for Bennett Miller.
