Max Swiatek is a Visual Effects Artist currently residing in America’s finest little city, Philadelphia. A Visual Effects and Motion Graphics graduate from the Art Institute of Philadelphia, Max specializes in compositing.
Max’s work has been described as “wonderfully cheesy”: perhaps this is because he draws inspiration from the forgotten “bad” films of the past. “I love to watch a nice old VHS tape and examine what years of wear and tear have done to the image,” says Max, “ I love old B and C films with missing frames and low grade image quality.”
Despite his interest in the past, Max strives to infuse the charm of vintage film with current techniques and styles using digital technology. He is an avid user of software such as Maya, After Effects, Shake, and Nuke.
