Boulder Media as a Junior 3D Artist

am a 3D Technical Artist. Up until recently I worked as the Virtual Production Studio Lead, with MAVRIX, a studio specialising in green screen production.

My role involed working primarily in Unreal Engine 5 (UE5) including intial concept, build, lighting and optimizing photoreal environments for our green screen workflow. I was also responsibile for linking our physical studio cameras to our virtual cameras located inside UE5 using the MoSYS startracking system. This allowed us to gain realtime chromakeying and compositing using an Ultimatte. Depending on client needs this allowed us to record final pixel results live or to push it to a livestream.

My other responsibilties included looking after schedules, the daily running of the studio, looking after the cabling, computers, physical lighting and building of practical sets.

Our clients included advertisement agencies, Virtual conferences for corporations and short film production.

My experience in the studio and at live events helped me to develop a wider appreciation and understanding of the production process. This included working with clients, producers, camera crew, DOPs and many other industry roles
