VFX Supervisor
Your morning begins in a VFX studio with a shot review session for a Bollywood period drama — evaluating 20 composited shots where VFX plates of a recreated Mughal fort must seamlessly integrate with on-set footage, providing precise technical notes on colour temperature mismatches, edge matte quality, and CG lighting direction. Afternoons are spent in a client review with the director, negotiating a scope extension for 30 additional environment extension shots, and preparing the weekly production progress report.
