I've worked with Schy extensively on my latest film ”Wraith”, which we color graded, timed, created and or enhanced well over 200 VFX shots, and designed and rendered the opening and closing credits.

He is a consummate professional in every respect and someone I can assure you will look after your best interests.

On top of his professional capabilities, he is a good man with a good heart and a solid family man.
