Having worked as a cartoon animator/ assistant in the U.K. and the U.S.A. for all together 7 years, I have gained profound insight into the business of cartoon animation in particular. Further experiences include intensive training as a 3D modeller and animator which provided me with a broad overview on the field of CG imagery. In addition I also work as an author, and as such I am able to meet the demands of translation of literary works, too. |
