About

I’m Eva-Léa Longue Ngambi, a technical animator based in Montréal where I work across gameplay and cinematics, combining strong rigging/skin and VFX skills with detailed animation. Since 2019, I’ve also been cofounder and chairperson at Lucid Tales, leading animation production from character work to gameplay and cinematic sequences.

Alongside my studio work, I teach at UQAT, supporting students in Unreal Engine, animation, cinematography, and 3D environment creation. I love translating ideas into clear visual storytelling—whether through concept art, storyboard/animatics, or polished in-engine cinematics—while staying hands-on with the technical craft behind the final look.
