LOS ANGELES — Visual effects and color studio Jamm (www.jammvisual.com) recently welcomed veteran lighting guru Glen Swetez to its growing LA team. He will serve as supervising lighting technical director, after performing a similar role at multiple VFX companies in London throughout his career.
Swetez brings a wealth of experience, from his early days as a CG artist at MPC, to his role as lighting lead for studios such as The Mill and Dneg. Most recently, he was senior lighting TD for ILM. His list of credits include contributions to the Oscar-winning Ex-Machina (2014), the blockbuster hit Avengers Endgame (2019), and the VES award-winning Abba, Voyage (2022).
In his new position, Swetez will lead a group of talented lighters across numerous projects that span the shop’s portfolio. He and his family moved to LA from London for him to take on the new role.
“We are so delighted to welcome Glen to our award-winning team,” says Asher Edwards, executive producer and co-founder of Jamm. “Few people in this world have his touch when it comes to lighting, so we look forward to achieving new milestones together in the world of creative visual storytelling.”
