Beverly Pan
Beverly is a look development and lighting artist hailing from the sunny chaparrals of Southern California. Inspired by the vibrant peoples and cultures surrounding Los Angeles, she seeks to imbue her art with the same sense of liveliness and passion.
With an MFA in visual effects from the Academy and two Bachelors degrees from UC Berkeley under her belt, Beverly is a well-rounded artist proficient in both the artistic process as well as the technical aspects of computer graphics programming. She spent her graduate program not only honing her skills as a pro texture painter, xGen groom wrangler, and render-optimizing lighting artist, but also developing a wide breadth of software and workflow knowledge. In 2023, Beverly won the Academy of Art Spring Show award for character look development.
Beverly has lended her expertise to a variety of projects. Most recently, she has served as the lead lookdev and lighting artist on the award-winning animated short film Chain. With over six years of collaborative production experiences and her can-do attitude, Beverly is prepared – and excited – to tackle any challenges that may come her way in the VFX industry.
