Hey! - I’m a freelance creative director & animator based in Vancouver, Canada. From subtle to slapstick, I love partnering with artists, studios, and brands to bring something unique to life. With many years working in the Animation and Motion Graphics industry, I learned to be versatile while keeping my strong animation voice to different art styles. I also have a traditional animation course with School of Motion and I’m always open to giving talks and workshops.

VISUAL PLAYGROUND ✏
vp was a 10 intensive day-long workshop, with 3 conference nights and even a mural painting in the centre of Bucharest. I was excited to be invited to give my 2-day workshop and had the pleasure to be among artsits like malika favre, steve simpson, debbie millman, mattias adolfsson, yukai du, tobias hall, hedof, fabrik and blau.
I feel in love with Romania after I was so well received, not to mention amazing work that came out of the workshop! special thanks to ioana sopov, for getting in touch; raluca mitarca, for walking us around and catalin georgescu, for the great pics below.
feeling like a workshop?
for beginners and experienced Ae/3D artists looking for a fresh getting-away-of-my-comfy-zone time, this workshop presents traditional animation principles on a fun little assignment like a little loop, a hop, a turn or something going from point A to point B.
the focus is to work on a good rough pass, making sure the student feels not just a spark for frame-by-frame animation but also discovers and explores a new way of starting the animation process, using the frame-by-frame pass as a timing guide to the final version of the animation, which could then be done in any software.
