Katie Melua Perfect World

I'm a freelance animator, I have worked professionally as an animator for over 14 years and prior to that for over 10 years as a games artist.

I'm conscientious and hard working with a positive and efficient working manner.
I'm used to working to tight deadlines, managing my own workload whilst always striving to improve my animation.

I have many years of professional experience animating in Maya, XSI and 3dsMax.
