VFX comes of age
Industry veteran Shaina Holmes is a true VFX superhero. As the owner of the Ithaca, New York-based studio, Flying Turtle Post, she oversees everything from client outreach to compositing, as well as being the face of the company. She also finds time to teach the next generation through her role as an assistant professor of Television Radio Film at Syracuse University.
This breadth of experience has meant Holmes is at the forefront of industry change. With a mentorship-based approach, her company’s mission is to support underrepresented filmmakers by providing ways of achieving their VFX goals without breaking the bank.
