Later, Greg was a lighting supervisor on “Garfield: A Tail of Two Kitties”, look development supervisor on “Night at the Museum,” lighting/look development supervisor on “The Incredible Hulk,” and finally, digital supervisor on “Land of the Lost” before his promotion to vfx supervisor on “Knight and Day.”
