Salar Salahi

Since 2014, I’ve specialized in compositing and lighting across film, TV, animation, and music videos. My expertise includes green screen keying, color correction, CG integration, stereo compositing, depth map creation, clean plating, and look development. I work with tools like Nuke, Unreal Engine 5, Fusion, Resolve, Mocha, and Silhouette. Recently, I had the honor of working with Lubomir Arsov on his short film Kingdom, now on YouTube.
