I'm Chris, matte painter and concept artist in the film industry, and currently I'm employed at Industrial Light & Magic as a digital matte artist.
I'm familiar with 2D, 2.5D and 3D to accommodate the full range of demands of an environment/matte painting pipeline, and I'm familiar with the use of Photoshop, Maya, Nuke, Mari and a bit of Vue.
Film credits include Transformers 3, Pirates 4, 2012, and Avatar, to name a few.
For a more comprehensive list (which is, however, not 100% up-to-date) please visit my imdb page: [link]
I'm writing this journal, because Deviantart is one of the communities where I first started publishing images, and some of the folks here know me from day one
Would be great to stay in touch more, but I don't really have the time to hang around online anymore nowadays, so I tend to mostly be on facebook. If you want to stay in touch or follow my work, please feel free to add me there.
The account name is Chris Kesler.
Thanks and take care,
Chris
