👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSean Cole is a multidisciplinary visual software, hardware and electronics engineer with over three decades of experience in editing, VFX and bespoke prototype systems, and 11 years in senior production and engineering roles. Based in Portree, Scotland, he runs Pi Digital, combining hands-on design and construction of custom hardware/software with high-end post-production and "impossible repair" VFX work for broadcasters (BBC-approved supplier). His background spans BAFTA-winning children's compositing, 4K integration of 3D elements, and industrial training content—bringing a rare blend of creative pipeline fluency and electrical engineering rigor. Sean’s approach is practical and contrarian—he codes, builds and composits to solve problems others call impossible, often inventing bespoke tools and rigs along the way.
