Pixel Engineer to the Live Events & Broadcast Industries

Modern productions are very dependant on millions and billions of pixels, but making sure that the right pixel is displayed at the right place at the right time can be a logistical challenge. But it's a challenge I relish and I get to work on some incredible productions all over Europe, should you need a freelance someone to help you wrangle those pixels on your next production then please get in touch!
