[Swipe for more, videos might be a bit crusty] Happy New Year! 🥂 Hoping that everyone will have a good one! :] 🐦This year I will be graduating from college, and for my Master's thesis film, Long Live the Crow, I've been working hard alongside @spiderccino , whose rigging expertise helped make this rig look as good as it does, while functioning in a way that allows me to juggle both this, work and Animschool all at the same time. I'm extremely happy, thankful and excited to share more progress as the year advances! What started off as me playing around with different art styles turned into a love letter to my Eastern European upbringing (and one of my favourite local legends)! Your encouragement and excitement for this film inspired me to do my very best to make it the best I can :] From the depths of my heart, thank you to everyone who has supported my silly ideas and creative voice, as simple as they may be. They come from the heart💜 Thank you for reading this far while I'm sappy lol and happy 2026!!! More LLTC to come :P #rigging #2drigging #2danimation

🎄⛄Happy Holidays! I've been taking a vacation to spend time with loved ones, and hope everyone gets to have a calm holiday season, too :] ❤️ ☕ This has been my work for @animschool 's Body Acting class during the Fall term! (with some last-minute sound effects!) I'm very thankful to Scott Guppy for being an awesome mentor, @tm_vis.ca and Jason Behr for the invaluable general reviews, as well as Sergey B, @luck_ar7 , @mateineagoe and friends for exchanging feedback along the way! 💜 Really upped my constraints with this one! #3danimation #maya #animschool #bodyacting #animation

i’ve finally conquered master controllers!!!! i’ve been wanting to dabble more throughly in them for a while, and i think im finally getting comfortable using them in my rigs 🥹 this rig is for @anima_gin ‘s upcoming film that’s about to enter production, stay tuned for it! the colors are also placeholders for the final cleaned up parts; this film is gonna have an experimental pipeline with its clean-up process 🤔 #toonboom #toonboomharmony #toonboomrig #rigging #animation #animationpipeline #characterrigging #cutoutanimation

💜🧛‍♂️ Finished Obstacle Course assignment from my @animschool Body Mechanics class! Consistently trying to improve my storytelling ability, along with creating believable motion in my shots. Many thanks to Alek Kolev for mentoring me this class, along with Jason Behr, Luke Randall and Kyle Mohr for assisting with feedback during general reviews-- also, many thanks to Sergey Belyaev, Doug Russel and James Condon for support through the Animschool Discord! Your help taught me many invaluable things, moving on in the future. 🌟 Thank you!! See you guys next class! #animation #3danimation #animschool

🏕️This summer, @misaki.cherry , @clarathesodacan and I have challenged ourselves to a short Animation Jam in a mountain cabin in Transylvania, and these guys were absolute superstars to me 🦆🦆🦆 By the end of our week visiting the mountains and lakes of the area, we came up a short film that tells of the tale of the village. Going outdoors was very refreshing 🌲 The full thing will be coming out when it's ready! (Responsible for all the rough animation, compositing and partial cleanup. Thank you @misaki.cherry for the BGs, water FX anim and char cleanup on the first 2 slides!) #2danim #2danimation #shortfilm #behindthescenes #animation
