I am a professional 3D animation artist and educator with more than 12 years of expertise. I hold a postgraduate degree in Electronic Media from Pondicherry University and a Master’s Diploma in Animation and Multimedia.
My career has spanned various roles in animation and visual effects production, including 3D design, 2D/3D animation, lighting and rigging, 3D compositing, and visual effects artistry for both national and international media projects and films.
In addition to my industry experience, I’ve spent three years as an Assistant Professor at St. Thomas College, Thrissur, and have been teaching at KR Narayanan National Institute of Visual Science and Arts for the past six years. My academic contributions include serving as a subject matter expert and resource person for Multimedia courses at Calicut University and as part of the syllabus creation committee for the undergraduate Multimedia program.
I have conducted numerous national and state-level workshops on animation and e-content development for both graduate students, SIET and LBS teaching faculties under the Government of Kerala.
My technical expertise covers all stages of animation production, including story development, scriptwriting, character and background design, storyboarding, and animatics. I’m well-versed in animation and visual effects production pipeline, with skills in every aspect of production. My expertise extends to e-content development, traditional stop-motion techniques, and the complete 2D/3D Animation production process.
