In my last role at a boutique studio, we were creating a 2‑minute explainer video.

I was responsible for all character animation using Adobe After Effects and integrating assets from Illustrator.

I built reusable motion libraries, set up expressions for smooth transitions, and collaborated with the art director to ensure visual consistency.

The final video was delivered two days ahead of schedule, received positive client feedback, and increased viewer engagement by 30%.

While working on an indie game prototype, we needed a flexible rig for a lead character.

My task was to create a rig that allowed both skeletal animation and frame‑by‑frame tweaks.

I used Spine to set up a hierarchical bone structure, added inverse kinematics for limbs, and created custom controllers for facial expressions. I also documented the rig for the art team.

The rig reduced animation time by 40% and enabled the team to iterate quickly on character emotions, contributing to a successful Kickstarter demo.

During a pitch for a children's series, the creative director felt the pacing of the third act was too slow.

I needed to revise the storyboard to improve narrative flow while preserving key visual beats.

I held a quick brainstorming session with the director, re‑ordered panels, added a visual gag to maintain engagement, and presented a revised version within 24 hours.

The updated storyboard received approval, the pitch was funded, and the series launched to strong ratings.

Our team was tasked with creating a 30‑second animated ad for a mobile app, but the client’s budget limited render time.

I needed to deliver a visually striking animation without exceeding the render budget.

I proposed using a limited color palette and stylized motion blur to convey depth, leveraged vector assets for faster rendering, and coordinated with the technical director to optimize export settings.

The final ad met the budget, maintained high visual impact, and increased app downloads by 15% in the first week.
