About

I’m Carter Rae, a 3D animator and VFX-focused professional with hands-on experience bringing characters to life through academic projects and studio-style production workflows. I specialize in 3D animation with strengths in modeling, compositing, lighting, and effects, and I’m comfortable tackling technical challenges while keeping scenes optimized for usability and performance.

I enjoy collaborating with teams, sharing constructive feedback, and adapting quickly to new tools and project needs. From assistant coaching and mentoring (supporting others with clear, actionable feedback) to polishing animation deliverables and solving rigging/scene issues, I bring a strong problem-solving mindset, attention to detail, and reliable time management to every production.
