Prayagraj, India

I am a graduate of the Cleveland Institute of Art, with a bachelor's in animation and visual effects. I have worked on various projects, from medical to architectural visualizations. The 3D animation industry seems to be evolving fast. People used to be content with the one or two art styles it was capable of. Now they seem to be pushing and pulling those limits to create new art styles. This is what gets me excited, I wish to push and pull the limits of what 3D animation can do and make my animations flow like Glen Keane does with his 2D animations.
