Hello! 

I’m Sarah, a creative professional and 3D artist focused on lighting, compositing, and visual storytelling. I love crafting visually compelling worlds- from building and refining assets to lighting and compositing the final frames that bring them to life.

I enjoy applying my 3D skillset across industries, blending technical problem-solving with a strong creative eye, and continually growing as an artist through collaboration and exploration.

Rob’s Farewell- Character Lighting (WIP)


Rob’s Farewell- Full Shot | Responsible for Lighting & Compositing only





Rob’s Farewell is about a soldier who is going to war and has just spent one last night with his girlfriend. The sun’s about to set and they are saying goodbye without knowing if they will see each other again 💔

I am responsible for the Lighting and Compositing only! Animation was done by Virginia Cuesto Almedia during her studies at AnimWorkshop- you can view the before lighting shot here: https://vimeo.com/579870546.
