I am enthusiastic about contributing my skills as a Freelance 3D Animator — Character Animation Specialist. I bring expertise in forward and inverse kinematics and a strong understanding of core animation principles that align with the creative and technical demands of your projects. Throughout my career, including my tenure as an Art Lead at Katar and Hive Studios, I have engineered two detailed NPC animations and consistently delivered high-quality results in pipeline-oriented, deadline-driven environments. I have worked on first-person weapon animations and demonstrated proficiency in animating complex sequences. I am highly skilled in Autodesk Maya, ZBrush, and Unreal Engine 5, and I adapt quickly to new tools like Unity Animation Controller to integrate seamlessly with your team. My portfolio at artstation.com/leahishayev1show showcases a dedication to dynamic character movement and visual storytelling. I have mentored fellow artists in model optimization for animation, and I understand the collaborative spirit essential for a successful studio.
