Throughout my years of experience in nearly all areas of Visual Effects, I've aimed to empower my teams both as an Artist and Supervisor by solving technical and artistic challenges, streamlining surfacing techniques while maintaining the highest aesthetic quality, as well as mentoring Junior Artists and Interns. I enjoy the collaborative process and working with Artists and Supervisors interdepartmentally as well as in conjunction with TDs, Art Directors, VFX Supervisors, Production and Clients to achieve each project's ultimate vision. I am also thrilled to have been an integral part of Immersive Technologies Teams at the forefront of innovative AR and VR Apps, providing artistic leadership and establishing workflows. My experience gives me a wide perspective by which I see every asset from start to finish, placing the focus on maintaining best standards and practices with respect to each intended platform, working efficiently and delivering results on time that exceed expectations.

Outside of Visual Effects, I am a lifelong painter, sculptor and creator. I enjoy painting as well as designing and creating stop-motion puppets. Currently, I volunteer in our community Art League hanging quarterly group shows featuring my work, as well as the traditional work of many local artists. Before relocating to the Sonoran Desert in Arizona in 2020, I curated monthly group and solo exhibitions for a Los Angeles Art Gallery and Tattoo Studio owned by myself and my husband for many years. I have performed live painting on canvas in front of an audience at several Los Angeles events and have participated as an artist in many exhibits as well!

I always welcome new challenges and look forward to hearing about exciting opportunities! Message me directly if you would like to connect at wendymklein@gmail.com or via LinkedIn www.linkedin.com/in/misswendyfx
