I am Saamridh Dhunraj Ramkelawan, a passionate 2D artist who has expanded into high-level 3D art and animation. I enjoy storytelling, character design, and collaborating with teams to bring ideas to life, while continually refining my craft in Maya, Substance Painter, and the Adobe Creative Suite. I am currently a student at The Animation School and, in 2024, I served as Project Manager for our final-year student film. I was accepted into the 2024 MIFA mentorship programme in Annecy for my character design submission. Since late 2024 I have been a character artist and storyboarder at Bugbox Animation Studio, gaining hands-on experience with industry pipelines and production workflows.
