A core member of the studio leadership and creative teams, he helps define both how content is captured and what is creatively possible at unprecedented scale.
Andrew joined Sphere as an award-winning director of photography and advanced imaging consultant with more than two decades of experience advancing production technology across film, live events, experiential media, and commercial storytelling.
