About

Hi, I’m Patrick Lapierre, a Montréal-based animator, cinematographer and filmmaker with over 15 years of experience in animation, compositing, production and education. I enjoy leading teams toward clear, expressive visuals and solving creative and technical challenges with collaboration and curiosity. I also value sharing workflows and mentoring others to streamline production from concept to delivery.

I hold a DEC in cinema arts and a Bachelor’s degree in animation cinema, with strong proficiency in TVPaint, Harmony, Nuke, Maya, and Final Cut/Adobe Creative Suite. I’m fluent in French with solid English and Italian skills, and I thrive in creative environments that mix storytelling, design and technical craft.
