ABOUT NOEL
I bring characters to life, whether they’re roaring beasts or wide-eyed misfits.
With over a decade in film, games, and tech, I mix performance, storytelling, and smart workflows to craft animation that moves, entertains, and occasionally causes trouble (the fun kind). From stylised antics to cinematic drama, I make every frame count.
