MA-Compositing

Matt Sparks

For over fifteen years I worked at Walt Disney World. Disney taught me that magic doesn’t just happen;  it’s built, layer by layer, detail by detail. I spent over a decade creating unforgettable moments in front of the house, but my eyes were always on what was happening behind the curtain. Now, as a VFX graduate, I’ve made it there. Compositing was my unexpected passion, merging layers, matching light, and making CG feel like it was always part of the real world. I went from making magic for guests to making magic for the screen, and I’m just getting started.
