I created numerous scene transitions for the multi award-winning documentary .country by . The transitions support the films powerful edit by and enhance seamless storytelling. These scenes, whilst very subtle and understated, involved 3D camera tracking, object tracking, rotoscoping, colour grading and multi-layered comps and were some of my favourite visual moments in the film. Having such great shots filmed by to work with also made my task a real pleasure!

What followed was a deep dive and close collaboration with director and Cinematographer , exploring many options to arrive at the final design.
