Welcome to the VFX Compositor & Videographer portfolio of Jack Dunn. I am a Senior VFX Compositor with 10 years of industry experience and Videographer based between Norway and the UK. Continue to scroll down and view my work in both fields. If you wish to get in touch about working together, visit the Contact section. Enjoy!
As a VFX Compositor, I have a deep passion for bringing both photo-realistic and stylised images to life in feature films. Over the course of my career, I have developed extensive expertise in multi-layer compositing, deep compositing, stereo compositing, as well as invisible 2d compositing. These skills allow me to excel in delivering exceptional visual effects that immerse audiences in captivating cinematic experiences.
Throughout my career as a Senior VFX Compositor, I’ve had some incredible experiences and received recognition that I’m truly grateful for. One of the highlights was being honoured with the ‘Applause Award’ for my work on Spiderman – Into the Spiderverse at Sony Imageworks in 2019. It was a rewarding experience to contribute to the innovative look development of the Collider Beam sequence, which can be seen in my showreel. I had the opportunity to create and refine various tools and techniques that played a significant role throughout the film. Additionally, I had the privilege of sharing my knowledge and insights by delivering a lecture on Deep Compositing. It was a humbling experience to see my Deep template being utilised as a valuable resource for my fellow Lighters and Compositors.
In November 2017, I was honoured to receive the title of ‘Employee of the Month’ at MPC Vancouver for my contributions to A Wrinkle In Time. During the project, I had the opportunity to develop a comprehensive template that incorporated particle systems and a chroma distortion setup. This template proved to be incredibly valuable, benefiting numerous artists who were working on a specific sequence, which can be seen below.
Beyond my VFX work, I am also actively engaged as a videographer. Currently, my focus lies in crafting compelling travel videos and short documentaries that shed light on humanitarian work. My work as been selected and screened at film festivals in North America and Europe, which is something I am immensely proud of.
In my most recent travel video, I embarked on an unforgettable road trip across the breathtaking deserts of Namibia. Together with my partner Maïka, we explored the rugged terrain, camped under the starry skies, and had thrilling encounters with wildlife along the way.
Currently, I am finishing a short documentary focused on rainforest conservation in Cameroon, in collaboration with WWF . This project involved spending two weeks in the field, living in the rainforest, and capturing the vital work of the Bio-Monitoring team. I’m incredibly excited to share this upcoming project with the world, so stay tuned for updates!
One of my biggest passions in life is to travel and take photos.
Over the years, I’ve been fortunate enough to visit some stunning countries and here you’ll find a collection of some of my favourite shots from different trips (the quality has been adjusted for website functionality).
