Loris Hawes
BA Animation and Visual Effects
I am a self taught 3D Animator who originally picked up animation as a hobby in 2020, during the lockdown COVID 19 era. But I stuck with it as I quickly began to improve my skills as a 3D animator and decided to do it professionally.
I started using a software known as Source Filmmaker and then started to learn Blender for a brief period until joining the AVFX course where I am now experienced and confident in animating in Maya. I had also heavily developed on my teamwork and cooperation skills at Norwich University of the Arts.
Over the 3 years I have spent at Norwich, I had tried both Character Animation and Creature Animation to expand my portfolio and knowledge.
But, during production for my FMP, I have grown rather fond of creature animation and have been heavily influenced mainly from franchises such as the Godzilla Monsterverse franchise and the Jurassic Park/World Franchise.
I would love to have the opportunity to work in a professional, major VFX studio as a creature animator.
