Hello! My name is Minseo Kwon, and I am a 3D Animator currently pursuing a senior BFA in Computer Animation at Ringling College of Art and Design. I’m passionate about bringing ideas to life through believable, expressive characters, and I have strong experience working across animation pipelines that integrate modeling, rigging, animation, and lighting. I’ve contributed to a variety of projects, ranging from short films to 3D commercials, collaborating closely with teams to deliver polished and visually compelling work. I’m proficient in industry-standard tools including Maya, 3ds Max, Blender, ZBrush, and Substance Painter, and I enjoy continuously learning new tools and workflows. Outside of work, I enjoy hands-on creative activities such as journaling, planner decorating, and crafting small handmade items.
