About Me
Emma Flores
Mexican Born lighting Artist based in Los Angeles, currently working as a lighting trainee at Disney Animation Studios in Burbank CA. My curiosity for 3D lighting and shading began the first time I saw Pixar’s Ratatouille, it was then when I started to question myself about the process behind 3D films, I was fascinated by the impact that color, composition, and lighting have in storytelling and it was then when I started my path in the industry, I studied 3D Animation in college where I understood the importance in the relation between art and technology and how they complement each other in this form of art, I then decided to specialize in lighting by attending to grad school at Academy of Art University in San Francisco. I have been part of different programs such as volunteering for the VES Bay Area, I spent 6 months at a mentorship program in which I was lucky to be mentored by an amazing lighting TD from Pixar, this experience opened a world of possibilities, it showed me the importance of communication and that everything behind a compelling work has a strong intention behind. My passion for the industry keeps growing every day. I am proud to be part of the VFX community.
