ARTHREX - STUDIO X

Virtual Production Stage Operator

NAPLES, FL | MAY 2023 - PRESENT

I started with the opening of Studio X in May of 2023 as its first VP Operator; responsible for the full production process from pre-vis and design, to shoot day operation. I was responsible for two multi-node systems: one 50ft diameter volume and another 20ft square volume that are used for medical education content, marketing assets, live events, and interactive tours.
