Wonder Park

On Paramount Animation's *Wonder Park*, I played a pivotal role in actualizing the film's vibrant and imaginative world, Wonderland, through dedicated contributions to Surfacing and Lighting. I meticulously crafted the visual fidelity of fantastical environments and whimsical characters, defining material properties and textures that brought the magical amusement park to life. My work in lighting was crucial in establishing the film's dynamic mood and atmosphere, from the exhilarating brightness of its wondrous rides to the nuanced portrayal of "the Darkness" that threatened the park. Navigating the complexities of such a richly detailed and often fast-moving animated environment, my efforts ensured a visually consistent and emotionally resonant experience, enhancing the storytelling through compelling visual design.

Wonder Park is a 2019 computer animated adventure comedy film produced by Paramount Animation and Nickelodeon Movies, with Ilion Animation Studios handling animation. The plot follows a young girl who encounters a real version of her magical amusement park, run by talking animals. In this film I was working on the Environment Surfacing team for about two years, after that I switched to lighting department, for about almost a year, where I lit up a bunch of shots and did the precomps of them.
