Biography

Patrick Tubach recently joined Epic Games as a Visual Effects Supervisor in May 2022. Prior to that, Tubach worked at Industrial Light & Magic, starting in 1999, as a compositor. During his time at that company, he had taken on roles of increasing scope and responsibility, working his way up to 2D Department Supervisor and Visual Effects Supervisor.

Tubach graduated summa cum laude from Baker University in Baldwin City, KS, with a BA in Communications, and although much of his schooling centered on creative writing and journalism, his lifelong interest in film led him to Los Angeles, where he began his visual effects career at Kodak's Cinesite. As digital effects grew more sophisticated, Tubach soon made the transition from roto and paint artist to compositing. In that marriage of photography and CG, he found a genuine affinity and passion for the artistry of digital effects.

As a Visual Effects Supervisor, Tubach is responsible for working with other key creatives throughout the visual effects process, from bidding to final delivery of work. He also works closely with the production team to help plan the on-set execution of the visual effects work and has often supervised shoots on location as an HOD.
