Available to hire
Hi, I’m Philippa Kurochkina, a 2D animator and motion designer with a strong visual storytelling background. I create character-driven animation for digital platforms, work with pre-built assets, and maintain visual consistency across episodes and deliverables. I enjoy collaborating with remote teams and delivering expressive motion that supports narrative goals.
I have experience in animation, illustration, and costume design for film and commercials, and I thrive in feedback-driven workflows. I also explore AI-assisted ideation (Runway, Kaiber, MidJourney) to accelerate concepting while preserving a coherent style and emotional timing.
