I worked very closely with Nathan at Animal Logic Sydney. He was a Sr. Matte Painter and was quickly promoted to Creative Lead of Matte Painting. He's possibly the most talented matte painter I have ever met, a amazing eye and really fun to work with. He has the funniest stories. I learnt a great deal from him and would highly recommend him to anyone.

Nathan is a great individual to work with. He has a brilliant understanding of colour and composition drawing on many years experience. If asking for advice on a shot, he is able to articulate these things clearly and concisely and is more than willing to help. I've learned much from Nathan and I would happily work with him again in the future.
