SCOTT PILGRIM VS THE WORLD

Company: Mr X FX
Matte Painting Department

I had the privilege of working on this memorable film before it was in post production. During my first year with the Mr X matte painting department I was able to work on many pieces of pitch keyframes and concept art for the film.

I worked collaboratively with several other artists in the department and helped design tree/snow elements that were stylized to match the look of the graphic novel, while realistically rendered to match the live action actors and set.

There was a lot of work put into the snow and trees to resemble the magical 'interior of a snow globe'/illustrative quality of the visuals.

I built a lot of skeletal trees that were used in several shots and did the snow/winter replacement on several plates as a dmp artist.

One of the first matte paintings I worked on in my career. (Scott Pilgrim)
