I’m an animator with 3+ years of experience working in a creative environment and I am currently finding work to be a full-time animator/ storyboard artist.
My main skill is in 2d animation, specialising in dynamic movement and camera angles, especially involving action shots. Additionally, I have experience working with mixed-media animation. This has helped me develop various skills in 3d animation, stop-motion and compositing.
I have a lot of experience when it comes to time management, and I always strive to uphold a good work ethic.
Terra Town is a short proof of concept for a future show I want to create and is also my final major project for university. It is about a secret underground monster civilisation. In addition to 2D animation, you'll see that I've also utilised different types of media, like 3D animation and stop motion. My main reason for using multimedia in my work was to create unique/interesting visuals that could further enhance the appeal of my show concept. (Note: The first 2 videos are the finished final project whereas the third video is the original rough animatic)
