đ¨ Atomic Artist Spotlightđ¨
Name: Anita Bhatia
Position: Currently a Harmony Compositor but I have worked in 2D FX and 2D Builds before and love all three departments!
Highlight of your career: Working on âHildaâ. It was probably the smallest team I have worked on, professionally. I loved working on the show, and I love the showâs content, heart and creativity.Â
Favorite animated show/movie: Too many to name. Some of them include - Arthur, Steven Universe, Gravity Falls, for TV shows. For movies, Inside Out, Frozen and anything from the Disneyâs Renaissance in the 90s.
Favorite type of animation: 2D. I like 3D and I love to see how advanced animation has become, but 2D will always be my first love. I also really enjoy seeing graphic shapes, and black outlines around characters - very classic cartoony stuff.Â
Where did you go to school: Iâve studied at Langara and Emily Carr for my degree in Fine Arts. And then Vanarts for Animation.
Favorite animated characters: Elsa, Stitch, Tom and Jerry, Mable Pines, the list goes on forever.
Name someone you admire in the animation industry: Juan Carlos Lapiz, Nadine Westerbarkey, Lindsay Knowler. These people have such big and generous hearts. I strive to be like them. I also admire all my teachers from Vanarts circa 2014.
Why is Atomic a great place to work: Atomic cares about their artists and the studio itself is very artist driven, with our needs coming first. I also love the culture and chill, friendly vibe that the studio brings, whether working in house or remotely.
When I am not working at Atomic, I am drawing and reading in my spare time, hanging out with my dog, and going for walks to enjoy the nature we have within the bustling city of Vancouver. This year, I have started teaching online cartooning classes for children, and doing pet portraits with proceeds going to the SPCA, an organization I deeply support.
