MY JOURNEY

During my early childhood years, it was evident that I developed a true passion for the world of cartoons. Walt Disney, Klasky Csupo (Nickolodeon) and Matt Groening (The Simpsons) were all part of my world.

My teenage years followed, where I progressed and further enhanced my skills by utilising Flash animations. I would often find myself after homework hours, sketching, plotting storylines and creating characters in my journal.

During my high school years, my passion for animation grew stronger, hence after graduation I pursued Tertiary studies and gained hands-on experience in several animation studios.

Tertiary:

Diploma of Information Technology (2011)      

Advanced Diploma of Information Technology (2012)

Bachelor of Interactive Entertainment (Animation) (2015)

Studios:

Southern Star Studios, Singapore (2009)

Viskatoons, Richmond, under the guidance of Peter Viska (2010) 

Jumbla Academy, South Melbourne, under the guidance of Professor Lahiru and mentored by Alyssa Smedley. (2016)

In July 2016, I established my own animation studio, and have fully completed animated projects for several clients from independent film production companies all based here in Melbourne.

BAK-Animations has a strong work ethic for completing projects on time, a great rapport with clients, and it continues to explore, challenge and create a unique style of animation for the world to see.
