Hello. I’m a creative. Passionate about animation, video production, illustration and graphic design. Working as a senior motion designer for CBC News based Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.
I’ve done some independent film making and moonlighting freelancer. Have a look at my animation experiments on Instagram. Or feel free to contact me. I’m always interested in collaborating on interesting projects.
Cheers
Steve
