My name is Michael Davies, and I am a Technical Artist with over ten years of experience in VFX, animation, and technical art. I’ve had the privilege of working on major feature films such as Batman v Superman, Doctor Strange, Thor: Ragnarok, and others, with leading studios like DNEG, Industrial Light & Magic, and Illumination McGuff. Additionally, I have worked on a variety of freelance projects for clients such as Firewithoutsmoke, UNICEF, Wired, 1FilmUnit, and 3D2D Studios.

My main expertise lies in Modelling and Rigging, although I’ve also contributed to areas like Texturing and Character Effects. Alongside my production work, I serve as Head of Creative Technology at Escape Studios, where I oversee the development of degree programs that align with industry standards. I’m also an Autodesk Certified Trainer, specializing in Maya, and have been involved in initiatives like Epic Games’ Summer of Unreal, helping artists adopt real-time workflows.

With a strong mix of hands-on production experience and a passion for education, I’m committed to advancing the VFX and animation industries.
