About Christopher Smallfield

I am an award-nominated VFX Supervisor with over 20 years of experience leading cutting-edge projects at the intersection of art, technology, and storytelling. From managing teams of 200+ artists on Emmy-nominated productions like Loki Season 2 to supervising the creation of visually stunning worlds for Marvel films, my career has been defined by innovation, precision, and leadership.

My expertise spans traditional VFX pipelines, real-time rendering workflows, and generative AI. I have a deep understanding of Universal Scene Description (USD) and its transformative potential, stemming from years of hands-on exploration and collaboration with industry-leading creative technologies. I’ve also authored a book on generative AI, reflecting my passion for integrating emerging technologies into creative processes.

With a strong foundation in design, 3D artistry, and team leadership, I thrive on solving complex creative challenges while fostering collaboration across technical and artistic disciplines. My recent work includes developing efficient workflows for high-fidelity motion capture, combining AI-driven facial capture with advanced digital assets, and exploring the possibilities of virtual production.

I’m driven by a curiosity for innovation and a desire to bridge the gap between creative vision and technical execution. Whether it’s crafting the next generation of digital content tools or enhancing collaborative platforms, I am excited to shape the future of creative technology.
