WoodcockVFX is created and run by Mark Woodcock, a Senior CG artist with 12+ years in film, TV, and commercials.

 

Mark has worked with 3D since 2007 and brings production proven methods to mentoring, tutorials, and portfolio support.

​

Mark has contracted at 18 studios in the UK and internationally, returning to 5 of them. He works primarily as a CG Generalist, with focused experience in lighting and texturing.

From 2021 he moved from fixed contracts into freelancing, choosing varied teams and pipelines to learn widely, solve different production challenges, and build a strong global network.

 

Alongside studio work, Mark teaches and mentors. He has lectured at the National Film and Television School, delivering a semester on the Digital FX MA. He has taught at the University of Hertfordshire on the Games Art and Design MA, plus mixed classes across 3D animation, games art, and VFX software. He has also given lectures at Amersham and Wycombe College.

 

Mark mentors artists worldwide through private online sessions and offers practical guidance on freelancing, including setup, finding work, tracking earnings, and managing savings and expenses, informed by years of working with industry focused accountants.

​

Mark was featured on The VFX Artists Podcast in 2024 and was the first artist spotlighted by VFX Wire to an audience of 15,000 plus industry professionals that year. In 2025 his tutorial, "Lighting and Shading 3D for VFX Masterclass", was selected as a Staff Pick on FlippedNormals.com, a global marketplace for the world's best 3d artists.
