Work History
  • Freelance Animator

    September 2023 - April 2024

    I worked with the director and head animator to create character animation for the cutscenes for the new Funko Pops video game coming out summer of 2024.
    This project had a lot of creative freedom as the animators were asked to add in any
    comedic moments they saw fit. We would then quickly respond to any feedback from the lead and/or clients.
    I also had to use Unreal Engine to import and test out animations from maya.
