About

Hi, I’m Ando Roose, a Senior Animator and Animation Supervisor with a passion for making animations work seamlessly in game engines. I design, prototype, and debug interactive animation systems, build robust pipelines, and bridge the gap between Design, Programming, and Art to deliver fluid gameplay moments.

Over the years I’ve led teams at Gameloft Barcelona, Volition and Symbiotic Labs, shaped animation for Red Faction Armageddon and Minion Rush, and collaborated with VFX and Audio to bring scripted scenes to life. I thrive on turning complex ideas into tangible, character-driven experiences and mentoring artists to push their craft.
