    I have a Master degree in animation from the Academy of Fine Arts of Zagreb (Europe) and more than 10 years of work experience in the field of animation. See more of my works on instagram @antemuralis_pekmez😊 You can get video game assets and animations, character design, music viedeo, logo design, stroyboard, animatic, commercial, explainer, festival animation, documentary, pretty much anything that needs movement :P This is what I can do for you: 1. Briefing: You tell me ‘hey Marta I would like a logo animation, an intro/outro, gif, explainer, whiteboard, stop-motion, music/lyric video, app web animation, game animation or asset, character design, background, book trailer, commercial, documentary, comic, etc.,… 2. Preparing the elements for the animation: I see your references, what style you like and provide everything that is needed for the animation. Model lists, turnaround of the characters (if needed we design them), height comparison charts, palette, backgrounds, assets, brush charts and so on. 3. Storyboard and animatic This usually goes for longer animations. I plan each scene of the animation as a comic book - the camera angle is set for each cut and a description is given to what does happen. Then each scene from the storyboard is timed. We exactly see how many seconds each cut takes. It's the first preview of the animation flow. We can already see if some scenes may need to change order, look longer, shorter, switch order, add or delete, because many times when something looks good as a static drawing it does not look good in a scene sequence. 4. Animation: key poses, phasing, clean – up and colouring After we're set on each scene I proceed to draw the key poses of every movement in each scene. Drawings are added in-between the key poses to crate smooth movements. Each drawing is cleaned and made as the final version. I colour each drawing. About me: I’m communicative, positive, hard working, passionate about animations, look up to Disney and Ghibli, would like to open my own animation studio. I hope to have a relaxed, fun and open minded atmosphere where you feel free to suggest ideas and enjoy your working time with me. My experience is that in such an environment the best creativity flows out. My work experience: I've studied animation for 5 years at the Academy of Fine Arts of Zagreb and have a Master degree in animation. I have more than 10 years of work experience in the field of animation. I've worked for 6 years at the HRT (the main television house of my country) on various shows providing regular monthly animated content. Outside of that regular job I made animations for many different institutions (universities, conferences etc.), had art exhibitions, performances and installations. For the past 2 years I've started freelancing thus entering the gaming industry (see sofl game on insta as ex.), doing commercials for different brands and ordinations, videos for different purposes (explainer, book trailer, theatre play, history museum shorts), app animation, logo design and animation, character design and animation, storyboarding and animatic, e - mail signatures, intro and outros, comics, costume design,... with people all around the world (US, Australia, Canada, Israel,...). I specialise in traditional animation or classical animation, cel animation, hand-drawn animation, also known as 2D animation: is an animation technique in which each frame is drawn by hand. I also do stop – motion, whiteboard, video editing, illustration, character design, storyboarding, rotoscoping, adding animation to already existing footage. My main programs are Procreate, Photoshop, Premiere and Soundbooh. Feel free to contact me and ask questions, wish you a lovely day M. A. Marta J.
