    uniE608 Animation Demo Reel
    I have been focusing on 2D animation since my bachelor's degree. My animation style emphasizes the performances of cartoony characters. I have gained extensive experience through both individual and collaborative projects, and have also taken on roles as a producer and storyboard artist. I prioritize exaggerating character performances, often opting for simpler character designs to enhance performance quality. However, I also enjoy experimenting with more organic performances for detailed characters. I am eager to continue exploring and expanding my abilities within the industry.
