Erik Dehkhoda
VFX Supervisor, VFX Producer, and Artist, Conventional & Digital in Kopenhagen, Dänemark
I'm a Visual Effects Artist and VFX Supervisor/Producer, (Art Director Sometimes), in the Film & Television Industries. I'm born and raised in Hollywood, California, but I've also spent half of my life in Germany where my family is from.
My career has spanned from Disney Feature Animation to Warner Bros to Industrial Light & Magic and various other studios.
Art, & World Travel have been my lifelong passions and I've been very fortunate in having experienced them all throughout my own personal journey.
I moved to Copenhagen, Denmark last year and have been working as a Compositing Supervisor on Lego's "Ninjago" Animation Series by day and I'm a Drummer in a Danish Pop-Rock band by night. I am also an Adjunct Professor/Docent occasionally back in Germany at the S.A.E. in Stuttgart & the "Filmakademie" in Ludwigsburg.
Back in Germany & London I spent over a year and a half of my life as the Comp Supervisor on "The Amazing World of Gumball" for Cartoon Network and I have been working as a 3D Maya Generalist & Nuke Artist for various studios in Europe ever since.
I moved back to Europe for various reasons and I've taken my share of punches for believing in certain things that never fully came to fruition, but life must go on and here I am doing the things that I know best.
I'm grateful for most of the paths I've chosen in general and at this point I have no idea where my heart will finally land, but "Wow" is this an experience for better or for worse.
I'm simply an Artist with adventures to tell
