Hi there! I’m Namitha Ann Thomas, an Experimental Animation graduate from OCAD University with a minor in Art History. I blend stylised character design with poetic, non-linear storytelling. My thesis film Ode to Honey, a two-minute journey following a bee’s euphoric path, was exhibited at GradEX110. I co-created an interactive Millumin-based game shown at ROM After Dark. I’ve contributed to storyboarding and motion design at Miles Studio using After Effects, collaborating with teams to meet client deadlines. Influenced by European and Renaissance art, I bring classical composition and symbolism into contemporary animation, driven by curiosity, world-building, and a passion for storytelling.…Hi there!
