3d Animation Reel
+ BreakDowns +
• Animated 3D cartoony to hyper-realistic characters, creatures, and assets on diverse projects and led/supervised team animation.
• Animated the world’s most famous IPs fit into the character’s bible under high quality production and collaborated with world-class companies and agencies.
• Cooperated with other team leads, deeply understanding the entire production pipeline to get work done efficiently and smoothly. Restored jobs and set up the scenes to assign shots to animators based on their specialty.
• Worked closely with Directors and Clients to ensure passing on their super-vision to Animators.
Lead Animator
So, how am I leading/supervising projects?
In order to ensure that our animators have a clear understanding of the characters' movements and personalities, I conducted an
in-depth study of the character's motions during our collaboration with unique IPs.
As an animation lead, I prioritize effective communication with the animators to ensure that our team is on the same page. To facilitate this, I set up regular meetings, either daily or every other day. Additionally,
I find that visual aids such as quick doodles are more effective than written notes in providing clear feedback and direction for the animators.

I believe that good communication is a crucial skill for any animation lead, as it helps ensure that the animators are moving in the right direction and that the final animation accurately captures the intended vision.
