HI THERE!

I am a character animator based in Hamburg / Germany, fueled by a constant curiosity and an affection for breathing life into animations. My journey in animation began at Animation School Hamburg, where I honed my skills in traditional, hand-drawn animation. From there, I embarked on a journey, delving into 2D animation before immersing myself in the dynamic world of game development. With a knack for bringing characters to life, I've had the pleasure of contributing to various projects across TV, advertising, film, and gaming.

Animation isn't just what I do for work; it's what drives me. With a wealth of experience across diverse projects and a commitment to artistic excellence, I bring not only technical proficiency but also organizational competence, resilience, and exceptional team-player qualities to every endeavor. My strong drawing skills serve as a foundation for transforming ideas into captivating visuals, a trait that has been evident in my successful contributions to past projects.

I'm excited about the opportunity to collaborate with your studio, bringing creativity and professionalism to every project. Take a look around my portfolio, and let's create something amazing together!

Best,

UWE
