Second shot I worked on for the live action TV series - The Wayfinders (2025)
Animated this bee entirely in Houdini🌞Definitely challenging, but a really fun experience
First time animating for a live-action TV series - The Wayfinders (2025), released on Angel
I animated this shot in Blender while contributing during my time at @cubic.vfx Thanks for the team for the opportunity!
🎬 Some of my character animation shots breakdown from the short film “Shyraq” (not all of my scenes fit in)
Now film has over 6M+ views on YouTube!🤯
Proud to share some of my shots!✨
I’m so grateful to the amazing team at @ara.studios for that journey 🙏
Now I’m moving forward – exploring new horizons through freelance projects and new roles at studios 🚀

My Gameplay animations reel from Golden Tides game by Psychedelic Games with production team @ara.studios ❤️🔥
Made over 1000 animations including playable characters, NPC, pet, mount, enemy and bosses in 3 years🧌
Earlier in 2023, I had the honor of directing the first teaser for the upcoming game @goldentides_gg
It was my second experience as a director and combining Blender + Unreal Engine for cinematics
Project helped me grow in:
🎬 Direction
📓 Storyboarding & choreography
💥 Boost Technical stuff, Character & 2D FX animation
Grateful to producers @masonrichman and @tsahacg for the opportunity, and to the amazing team behind it all.
Special thanks to @tsahacg for producing ARA Studios, but also handled environment design, lightning, shading & rendering with UE5

Together with @soulaqayy , we once again experimented with our ideas and strengths and the result was incredibly satisfying✨
Huge thanks to @soulaqayy for crafting the stunning cloud environment using Houdini simulations. It was her first time diving into this kind of FX work, and I really admire the way she took on the challenge with such energy and curiosity
Believing in her potential and enthusiasm, I trusted her with this part and that trust paid off. It gave me the freedom to fully focus on bringing the animation to life
This was a real example of how teamwork, trust, and exploration lead to creative growth. On to the next one! ☁️✨

Together with @donymation , we went through a ton of ideas before landing on the final version.
The goal was to keep the number of assets in the frame minimal to save production time — and it worked!
It was a lot of fun exploring the theme of Japanese ninjas while still keeping the playful and adorable spirit of the cat character.
Huge thanks to Anton Loginov and @adamcgi for helping adjust the game model to fit our vision.
It was an absolute pleasure working with you all!

FX REEL 2024
Осы өнерде де кәсіби маман болғаныма қуаныштымын!❤️
@ara.studios -қа рахмет маған сенім артып, түрлі жобалар арқылы тәжірибе мүмкіндігін бергеніне🥹
Golden Tides ойынының кейіпкерлерінің скиндерімен NFT картаға жасаған анимацияларым. Әліде көп анимациялар бар, алда рұқсат болса бөлісеміз.
Біз @ara.studios ойынның визуалдық жағын жасаудамыз. Ойынның қалай болып жатқаны қызық болса парақшаларына тіркеліңіздер https://www.goldentides.gg/
Шуақты мысықтардың эффектілерінің сыртқы көрінісі!

"Shyraq" фильмінде кейіпкерлердің анимациясын жасаған ең ұзақ, қиын және соңғы шоттарым. Бұнда 5 түрлі кейіпкердің бір-бірімен қарым-қатынасын үйлестіру өте күрделі жұмыс болды. Соған біраз референстер түсіріп, көбісін жоғалтыпта алдым да. Түсіргендеде актингым нашар болды)
