Claire Pollock
Visual Effects Artist

Claire left St Martin's School of Art with a degree in Graphic Design and a love of photography. After spending several years taking photos for record companies, publishers and magazines, she was introduced to Harry. Fascinated by the potential for image manipulation and design, she pestered several post houses for the opportunity to learn about compositing and visual effects.

Rushes succumbed to her wily charms, and soon after offered her a job. After 6 months as an assistant she was operating Harry. Two years later Claire moved across to Flame, and later Inferno, and has really enjoyed the flexibility of the ever-improving software.

During her time at Rushes Claire has worked on a wide range of high-end commercials and music videos from Virgin Atlantic and After Eight to Depeche Mode and George Michael with directors such as Andy Morahan, Jeff Stark, Patricia Murphy, Pedro Romhanyi, Will Van Der Vlught and Hugh Hudson.
