Hi! I’m Michelle. I’m a freelance animator and illustrator. I’m passionate about narrative illustration and animation. I enjoy bringing non-visual creatives like writers and author’s ideas to life via illustration or animation. Currently working on turning a script into a comic book (part time, about 5-10hrs a week). I have experience with 2D cell animation as well as 3D animation. I also worked on a 2D logo animation recently using motion graphic techniques in Blender.
