Skills
Skills Clear
I am a skilled and dedicated VFX animator with a passion for bringing characters to life through animation. I have honed my skills through formal education at ZICA in Essel world, Mumbai and further workshops from iAnimate.net led by industry experts.
With several years of experience in the animation industry, I specialize in 3D character animation, and have a strong focus on posture, expressions, and timing. I am well-versed in Maya's animation tools and am able to animate in true 3D space. I am a team-based professional with excellent interpersonal and organizational skills.
Currently, I am working as a Key Artist at MPC, where I have been working on several projects. My past work experience includes companies like Dneg-Redefine, Cosmos Maya, IACG Multimedia Pvt Ltd, Lightrooster Entertainments Limited, Pixstar Studios, DQ Entertainment Int Ltd and Ardnepu Art Labs, among others.
I am always looking for new challenges and opportunities to grow as a VFX animator. I believe that joining creative teams that push me to continue to hone my skills and advance in my career is essential to my professional growth. I am excited to bring my skills and passion to new projects and help bring stories to life through animation.
