Paula Requa
Lighter/Compositor
Paul Cox,
Producer
2010 Olympic Opening Ceremonies
I was very impressed with Paula's ability to take an initial brief and "run" with it.
I was constantly surprised by the amount and quality of her work despite having minimal supervision. The other trademark of Paula was that she was consistently the first to arrive on each day of the project.
She is both keen and able. I am looking forward to working with Paula again.

"Paula is a true professional with an incredible skill level and the unique ability to make a team, a family. Her positive attitude coupled with her talent give her the ability to rally an entire team behind her. She is an efficient, strong leader, and knows how to take charge in a way that makes her subordinates want to keep up.
I can't say enough good things about Paula."

"Paula is a wizard. Extremely knowledgable and super helpful -- she is wise, down to earth, humble. She loves her work and is eager to train and equip everyone. Friendly and approachable. Great communicator and tons of patience. If you have Paula on your team, your team is a winner! I hope I get an opportunity to work with her again.
Thank you Paula, you are amazing!"

"Paula continually astounds with her diligence, knowledge, and talent. I have not found an issue that Paula can't help with. She is patient, fair, funny and incredibly supportive. She gives extensive and highly informative, well thought-out tutorials, helps with problematic and challenging situations and manages time constraints with grace.
Paula will always be on my list of people to recommend. Anyone considering her employment would not be led astray with her as their choice."

Paula could always be counted on to step up to new challenges and workflows. With excellent technical proficiency and a fantastic attitude she was a pleasure to work with and is greatly missed!"

Paula was, and continues to be, an incredible resource for Compositing knowledge. I was relatively new to Comping when I started working with her and she made a huge effort to explain things in a clear and easy way that I could understand. She helped me form many clean habits and is always in the best mood. I would be thrilled to work with her again someday!
