CALLUM WEIR

I am a Senior Lighting and Compositing Artist with over 9 years experience working in the animation industry at award-winning studios including DNEG, Aardman, and Jellyfish Pictures, contributing to a broad range of feature animation, live-action, episodic, and advertising productions. I am highly focused on delivering exceptional visual quality, combining creative problem-solving with strong technical knowledge across modern production pipelines. Alongside shot-based work, I have experience developing tools and workflows to support artists, streamline processes, and improve overall efficiency within teams.


Proficient in lighting both characters and complex large-scale environments with a demonstrated ability to troubleshoot complex lighting/rendering issues. I have a strong artistic eye for mood, colour, and storytelling, combined with a deep technical understanding of rendering and believe myself to be an asset to any production. I have experience operating within USD workflows and have worked on many different styles of animation including full CG, 2D, stop motion, and motion graphics across various studios.
