About Me

Mike (Walls) Oakley : Digital Artist
|
|---|---|
| “Mike was able to take a show that needed a tight execution and really make it sing. The artists working with and for him enjoyed the show and did some fantastic work usually not seen with a small crew. This resulted in much less overtime than many of the crew had normally experienced. He’s a hard worker and very solid for team leadership.”

“Mike was a valuable member of our team on ’2012′. He approached every technical challenge or shot with a smile and persistent determination. His pro-active attitude, diverse skill set and great problem solving skills make him an efficient and effective artist. Any production would benefit from Mike’s presence on their team and I look forward to the next opportunity to collaborate with him again.”

“Ive been lucky enough to work with mike on a few features and every time its a pleasure. Mikes got the well rounded background as a 3d generalist, that proved invaluable as CG sup. Every time there was a problem, Mike had a solution and our core team was able to deliver a great product in a smooth and timely manor. I would definitely work with Mike again.” Alex Nice (Matte Painter and CG generalist at Svengali FX |

| Mike has a great level of diversity, and can handle anything that gets thrown his way. He is a great guy to work with and a person you can trust to get it done, but more importantly, he gets it done well. I would definitely work with Mike again.”
