Hello! I'm Patrick S. Høiseth, a 3D animator with more than a decade of experience crafting expressive character performance across television, video games, and advertising. I specialize in the full 3D animation pipeline, with hands-on expertise in Maya, Blender, MotionBuilder, and Unreal Engine. I love collaborating with teams to push creativity while maintaining a clear, on-brand voice. Beyond creating great motion, I mentor junior animators, optimize pipelines, and explore emerging tech to elevate storytelling. When I'm not animating, I enjoy sketching ideas, testing techniques, and volunteering with first aid at public events.
