Hi!
I am Vincent Wauters.
I am French and have been living and working in L.A. since 2006.
I have a Fine Art, Graphic Design and Visual Effects Background. I've worked in the visual effects industry since 1999 as an artist and supervisor,
constantly and increasingly involved in creative roles until I became a partner at Fellow L.A. in 2013 as a full time Creative Director.
I am passionate about my work, curious and dedicated. I enjoy the process of creating, making and bringing ideas to life.
