About

I work for Archetype Entertainment as a Senior Animator. I've had the privilege of working at Blizzard, Zenimax Online Studios, and People Can Fly. I've worked on titles like Spyro: Reignited Trilogy, The Elder Scrolls Online, and Dauntless. My goal for this channel is to teach others and share the knowledge and experience I've gained over the years working as an animator in games and television.

Video Description

Discovering an animation workflow that works for you can be one of the most important factors in your success as an animator. Often times we stick with whatever workflow we were taught in school, but there isn't one method for animating that works for everyone. In this video, I break down my workflow and talk about my thought process when approaching my animations.
