SHOWREELs:

Because of NDA I am cautious about presenting certain visuals on my personal webpage. For this reason I present myself mostly with official released Showreel materials and password protection so the content it is dedicated only to chosen people. These are TEAMWORKS! Therefore I use comments under each sample giving you a better idea about my part of the work. The L&R and material setups is the matter of course even for FX content.
