01 — Introduction

Compositor at Industrial Light & Magic.
Building production-grade generative AI
for cinema.

More than thirty feature credits across Marvel, DC, Mission: Impossible, and The Rings of Power. Independently solved 16-bit linear HDR generation from diffusion models, and built open-source tools bridging Foundry Nuke with the modern AI image stack.

HDR Image Generation from Diffusion Models

Bringing scene-referred linear 16-bit HDR generation to Qwen-Image-2512 — first via LogC4 encoding, then through native linear-space VAE and MMDiT fine-tuning.

Foundry Nuke Nodes for ComfyUI

A package of ComfyUI nodes that replicate common Foundry Nuke nodes — IO, merge, transform, grade, blur, OCIO, LUT — so a compositor can build AI-augmented workflows in tools that behave like the ones they already trust.

Autonomous Dataset Agent for HDR Training Data

An autonomous agent that builds training datasets from 360° HDR panoramas — extracting perspective views, evaluating each one with vision, and exporting only what passes.
