TESTIMONIALS

Lauren Van Rensburg

General Manager | Refinery

Terry is a rare find. His broad range of skills within the post-production arena means he is able to present solutions to problems at various stages of the process. He understands his tools and his craft to a whole new level. This, with a very creative eye for colour, has resulted in very happy clients. His level of commitment also makes him completely dependable in an often highly volatile environment.

Jurgen Meekel

Master of Fine Arts | WITS

One of my very favourite students… dedicated, inquisitive and passionate. A teachers dream student with a touch of nightmare. A fruit fly circle-ing just out of focus ± 15 cm before ones eyes. Waving does not help. He will persist. But in the way you want any student to be. Keep ideas coming and ask the appropriate questions. This said I would recommend Terry to anyone who needs a creative and technically proficient Colourist, Motion Graphics designer, FX-designer with an edge…

Charl Joubert

VFX Supervisor | Wicked Pixels

Terry was my sharpest student, very quick to pick up techniques and also create some ingenious ones of his own. He is the 1%.
