When I was offered the opportunity to join ILM and work on the latest chapter of the Indiana Jones saga, I jumped at the chance. Working at ILM had been a dream of mine since seeing Star Wars as a child. Raiders of the lost Ark is one of my favorite films. I had a blast working on the project and was given a variety of shots to complete, from the temple sequence at Akator to a cliff environment for a fight sequence. 

I even composited two simple shots on of the temple and another of a sunrise. There was no complex roto or color correction needed and they were finalled in their first review, I loved the all hands on deck style at ILM.

Using the proprietary ILM matte painting tools in Zeno was a revelation (Interactive projections in real time back then was unheard of) and working with some of the best artists and matte painters in the world was a truly amazing experience.
