Avatar Lead Compositor Speaks at IAR
|
|
On April 22nd, IAR had the wonderful opportunity to have the lead compositor of Avatar, Nathan Hopkins, speak at the school. He spoke at length about the specific work he did on the film while students looked and listened with awe. He also explained the pressures of working on extremely tight deadlines and spending late nights on the job, sacrifices he had to make to get the work done. Nathan worked closely with James Cameron and other personnel over the last five years while creating the world of Avatar. Nathan also presented students a few samples of past work, which ultimately got him the gig with Avatar. The event lasted for several hours while students and faculty asked questions. He did mention that, though it was extremely hard work and long days, the pay off was great. Since having Avatar under his belt, he has gotten an abundance of work.
