PREVIZ / POSTVIZ
Hiring an animation supevisor early on is always best to make sure not only the previz is shot properly, but that the performance is set correctly for the director in previz to make sure that once we are in post, the vendors have a clear guide and get the work done with minimum changes.
In Post-production, many studios are finding that having the animation supervisor client side is becoming more commonly accepted and cost effective considering most shows involve multiple vendors.
PRE AND POST PRODUCTION
Virtual cinematography means many things. From camera choices, staging and composition to performance, in visual effects virtual cinematography is key to delivering properly fleshed out shots and sequences.
VIRTUAL CINEMATOGRAPHY

Having directed motion capture for multiple blockbuster films and AAA video games, Emile understands that while technology constantly changes, the core mission remains the same: knowing how to use any tool to deliver the perfect performance. Track record in motion and performance capture includes high-profile projects such as The Mandalorian & Grogu, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, and F9: The Fast Saga.
MOTION CAPTURE / PERFORMANCE CAPTURE
ON-SET SHOOT
Emile brings decades of major studio experience and a precise understanding of client expectations to every project. A veteran of late-night on-set productions, he works closely with directors and executives to ensure the vision is captured perfectly the first time, significantly reducing pickups and reshoots.

Supervision and animation have become a staple of Emile's work, making sure he delivers the highest quality animation for clients.
