Summary
I am a 3d animator with experience in character and environment animations. I also have knowledge in character rigging, creating complete biped and quadruped rigs with additional control features.
With 4 years of animation experience I am able to plan and animate complex scenes which include multiple character interactions, dialogue acting and heavy action sequences.
I have a strong experience in working on small teams where I do everything from planning, rigging, skinning to animation
With 7 years of experience as a freelancer, working for advertising and game companies, I’ve learnt to communicate key ideas clearly and quickly to the team. As an example I am able to use my experience in comics as to sketch ideas to present them to directors and producers or using my traditional drawing skills for illustrative works or concepts.

3D ANIMATOR,RIGGER,MODELLER
In Dokroton I worked on a project called Eddy ,I was the animator, responsible of all the in-game animations and cut scenes. I did all the storyboarding for the cut scenes and game animations. Here I learned to animate and rig from creating face rig systems and used the biped or custom structures for the characters. The crowning feat was a 9 minutes intro video; it was my introduction to animation!
