I’m a professional 3D Character Animator and Rigger specializing in Maya and Blender, creating production-ready rigs and animations for film, games, and real-time projects. My core expertise is building clean, animator-friendly rigs and producing believable animation using industry-standard Maya workflows and efficient Blender pipelines. I also prepare characters and animations for Unreal Engine, ensuring correct skeleton setup, clean exports, and retargeting-ready results — but the foundation of my work is strong rigging and animation in Maya and Blender. What I can help you with: ✅ Character & creature rigging (Maya / Blender) ✅ High-quality character & creature animation ✅ Film & cinematic animation pipelines ✅ Game-ready rigs and animation ✅ Unreal Engine preparation & export ✅ Custom rigs for your characters and creatures I’ve created and released commercial 3D rigs, animated complex creatures (dragons, dinosaurs), and consistently work with production-level standards rather than shortcuts. 📌 If you want solid Maya/Blender rigging and animation that works everywhere, I’m ready to help.

Artist • Animator • Motion Designer I create memorable 2D animation - from the first sketch to the final polished frame. I'm a professional artist, animator, and motion designer with many years of experience creating commercials, music videos, children's content, explainer videos, game animation, and branded storytelling. I enjoy finding the right visual language for every project. Sometimes it's clean and minimal, sometimes painterly, stylized, or playful. I love exploring different techniques, mixing styles, and creating animation that feels unique rather than generic. I work through the entire production pipeline: • Character Design • Visual Development • Storyboards • 2D Animation • Motion Design • Compositing & VFX • Video Post Production Whether you already have a clear vision or just an idea, I can help turn it into polished, engaging animation.
