Hello! I'm Anna Stratenko, a narrative-driven storyboard artist and designer who thrives at the intersection of storytelling and visual design. I build immersive pre-visualization pipelines, bridging initial concepts with final CG-ready assets, and I love shaping cinematic flow across 2D and 3D spaces. My work spans from VR environments to traditional film prep, and I collaborate closely with animation, layout, and tech teams to keep the creative vision intact. I excel at organizing complex workflows, turning briefs into clear visuals, and delivering robust pipelines using state-of-the-art tools such as Unreal Engine, Unity, Blender, and the Adobe Creative Suite. I enjoy translating briefs into actionable visuals that empower teams to move from concept to finished scenes.
