A Little About Me…

Hi, I’m Noel! A Character Animator and 3D Artist with a knack for bringing ideas to life. Over the past decade, I’ve worked across film, games, and tech, animating everything from lifelike creatures to stylised performances. I’m always looking for smarter, faster ways to work and for ways to make characters feel truly alive. Whether solo or in a team, I bring creativity, adaptability, and a focus on making every frame count.
