Available to hire
Hello! I’m Reem, a passionate 2D animator with over 10 years of experience in the animation industry.
Professional Experience:
- My professional journey began as a compositor at Bardel.
- I went on to work at WildBrain on Carmen SanDiego as an animator and eventually joined Atomic Cartoons, where I’ve spent the past 6+ years growing and thriving.
- Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to wear many hats—animator, compositor, rigger, and now, animation supervisor—working on notable projects like TrollsTopia and Young Love.
Skills & Expertise:
- Animation & Rigging: My knowledge of rigging provides me with a deeper understanding of the mechanics behind the scenes, which enhances my animation work and enables me to optimize workflow across the pipeline.
- Compositing: I continue to practice compositing on side gigs, blending my technical and creative skills to create polished, integrated shots.
- Supervision: As an animation supervisor, I thrive in fast-paced environments. I’m adaptable, assess my team’s strengths and weaknesses, and assign work accordingly. I maintain open communication to solve interpersonal and technical issues promptly.
Teaching & Mentorship:
In 2023, I was honoured to begin teaching 2D animation and rigging at Capilano University. This role challenged me to refine my techniques, simplifying complex concepts for my students while helping me grow as both an artist and a mentor.
