I have always loved animation but when I was at college age, 3D was not that popular here in Turkey, especially we had no idea of a job as 3D animator!! I used to think that people with superpowers can make films like the 1st toy story!! :)) NO super-powers I have!! In time, I got more familiar with the 3D, and had the chance to see more "making of 3D films"... In chasing that dream, I first spent a year in Prag Film School in 2009, then joined Animation Mentor, graduated in December 2011, which has given me the wings to fly away as an animator.
I've been working professionally for over 8 years now as a character animator, mainly worked on TV series and commercials in Istanbul, and since 2017 based in London, working as Previs Animator and Layout TD.
My motto in life is keep learning, keep evolving, and express yourself.
I'd like to be included in creative projects that’ll give fun and joy to its audience. I want to be part of animation projects not just as an animator but more to help artists’ dream come true by producing the projects.
In 2019, I made the switch and combined my passion for animation with my strongest skillset; planning and organization. Taking production roles, I've been part of various projects from video games to TV , commercials to feature films.
"Artists don't need criticism, artists need love." Chuck Jones
I resonate so much with this sentence! Coming from the artist side, this has been my mission during my production career. Approach with empathy to those who put their heart into their creativity and amazing outcomes are inevitable.
