Hayley Miller (Founder)
I’ve worked in visual effects marketing for around five years and I’m constantly in awe of what is created. But not enough people outside of our industry realize how much work and passion drives what we see on screen. The World VFX Day initiative endeavors to provide a platform for the positive recognition visual effects deserves.
