I'm a freelance character animator at Masters & Savant.

Helping the effects department out with the creation of dust, steam, smoke etc. needed.

Helped establish and integrate a crowds department into the current Triggerfish pipeline. Provided guidance for a team of interns into creating animation for shots requiring large numbers of background characters. Built a library of animation cycles for use in different scenarios. Worked closely with the TD and relevant departments in getting the crowds.

Created the motion, gestures and expressions for characters to bring life to them. Received a brief from the Director where he described what he was expecting from each shot. Planned the shot using thumbnails and shown the Director for approval. Once approved went ahead and did some rough blocking of the key poses. Once the blocking got approved moved.
