Hi! I’m Yadu Krishnan, a digital compositor and lighting artist, born and raised in Bangalore, India, and now based in Vancouver, Canada.
I hold a BSc in Computer Science with a specialization in CG lighting and compositing. My go-to tools include Nuke, Katana, and Gaffer, which I pair with render engines like Arnold and Unreal to create cinematic visuals. With proficiency in Python and C++, I develop custom tools and optimize workflows to ensure efficient pipelines.
With 9 years of experience in visual effects and feature animation films, I’ve worked on exciting projects like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, Animal Farm (coming in 2025), and The Smurfs Movie (2025).
