I am an enthusiastic, Denver based mechanical engineer with an extensive background in design for manufacturing and the appropriate use of additive manufacturing technology. With over 13 years of industry experience, I'm passionate about designing exceptional and innovative products. Before I started freelancing, I was a Sr. Mechanical Engineer at Aleph Objects and worked with a multidisciplinary team to produce several award winning 3D printers and accessories. Following that, I launched my own brand and line of niche products in the industrial 3D printing space, gaining experience with brand communication, crowdfunding and small scale production management. As a freelancer, I've had the opportunity to work with some fantastic clients producing everything from EV chargers and home battery systems to fitness equipment, college courses and medical devices. I run a small print farm in house for prototyping, including resin and oversized material extrusion printers. This helps reduce prototyping costs, speeds up the development process and allows the fastest iteration time possible when needed. Here are some of the services I offer: - Design Conceptualization (early stage sketches and ideation) - 3D Design - Photorealistic Product Renderings - Manufacturing Documentation *Bill of Materials (BoM) * 2D Drawings * Material and Manufacturing Method Advice * Tech Packs - Electronics Prototyping - Product Prototyping - Small Batch Production - Contract 3D Printing

With a good amount of experience in architectural design, allow me to help you visualize your ideas for your home, office, building or any architectural space that you have in mind. I am an experienced Architectural Designer with Bachelor Degree in Architecture Engineering. My areas of expertise include drafting and conceptual designing either by hand or computer aided, architectural drawings, 3D modeling and rendering for architectural visualization. I am proficient using Sketchup, V-Ray, AutoCAD, Adobe Photoshop, Lumion and several additional software or plugins to improve the process and results. I am sure that the combination of these tools with my experience and ability in architectural design, I will be able to provide the highest quality service. You may see that I had one case of negative feedback. I hope that won’t discourage you from interviewing me. I’d be happy to explain the incident and how I’m making sure such a situation doesn’t happen again. I also strive to manage my workload to avoid blowing deadlines, a lesson I learned quite well in my one case of low feedback.

I am a Lead 3D Artist, with a Bachelor's Degree in Animation and Digital Arts, and 11 years of vast experience in the videogame industry. I am particularly expert in Modeling, Uvs, and PBR texturing for all sorts of 3D game assets (Full environments, vehicles, low poly characters, props...). In the past few years, I have also gathered a lot of experience in 3D services for web and mobile apps for different industries, as well as for VR; and I have also been exploring the use of AI tools to enhance my workflows and achieve even more stunning results, more efficiently. I have had the opportunity to work in a wide range of game and app styles, from hyperrealistic AAA titles, to stylized indie mobile games and apps, not only making 3D art, but providing art direction, leading, mentoring, and organizing tasks for teams of 10+ artists and amazing projects while also taking care of the projects' administration (making proper documentation, working closely with producers, maintaining direct communication with clients, and doing constant research for improvement). Always thinking ahead in order to deliver beautiful, practical, and useful art on time and quality, specially designed for my clients' needs and their particular videogames' engines and platforms. If you are looking for a skilled and experienced 3D artist who can also leverage the latest tools to enhance their work, please feel free to reach out to me. I’m looking forward to hear from you :)

How to Hire 3D Animators

What is 3D animation?

3D animation brings life to films, games, commercials, and advertising thanks to three-dimensional graphics software. 3D animators can create scenes that help sell your product, educate your audience, or provide buzz-worthy entertainment for your fans with top-notch graphics, flexible models, and realistic designs.

How do you hire a 3D animator?

You can source 3D animation talent on Upwork by following these three steps:

Write a project description. You’ll want to determine your scope of work and the skills and requirements you are looking for in a 3D animator.
Post it on Upwork. Once you’ve written a project description, post it to Upwork. Simply follow the prompts to help you input the information you collected to scope out your project.
Shortlist and interview 3D animators. Once the proposals start coming in, create a shortlist of the professionals you want to interview.

Of these three steps, your project description is where you will determine your scope of work and the specific type of 3D animator you need to complete your project.

How much does it cost to hire a 3D animator?

Rates can vary due to many factors, including expertise and experience, location, and market conditions. Learn about the cost to hire 3D animators.

How do you write a 3D animator job post?

Your job post is your chance to describe your project scope, budget, and talent needs. Although you don’t need a full job description as you would when hiring an employee, aim to provide enough detail for a contractor to know if they’re the right fit for the project.

Job post title

Create a simple title that describes exactly what you’re looking for. The idea is to target the keywords that your ideal candidate is likely to type into a job search bar to find your project. Here are some sample 3D animator job post titles:

Looking for a 3D animator to create a virtual reality trade showroom
3D animator needed to create a tennis advertisement

Project description

An effective 3D animator job post should include:

Scope of work: From storyboarding to sound integration, list all the deliverables you’ll need.
Project length: Your job post should indicate whether this is a smaller or larger project.
Background: If you prefer experience with certain industries, software, or formats, mention this here.
Budget: Set a budget and note your preference for hourly rates vs. fixed-price contracts.

3D animator job responsibilities

Here are some examples of 3D animator job responsibilities:

Work with a creative director to conceptualize and storyboard the project
Provide preliminary sketches for feedback to incorporate
Leverage background, texture, colors, lighting, and sound to optimize animation
Edit and finalize sequences to ensure the final product meets expectations

3D animator job requirements and qualifications
