Curriculum Vitae

Liam Collod Imaging - TD
France - Lyon (remote only) https://mrlixm.github.io lcollod@gmail.com

I am a versatile image maker; whose skills balance between art and technology. I care about image-related topics like lighting, compositing, color-management but also technical topics like pipeline infrastructure and programming workflows. I am a strong advocate for sharing knowledge and software, applied through writing documentation/tutorials or open-sourcing code.
