Nice to meet you
I'm Rory, a motion designer and 3D artist with 15+ years in the industry. I've freelanced for studios like Hornet, Buff Motion and Rokabye, and I'm at my best when I can pick up a brief, get stuck in and hand back work your team is proud to put its name to.
How I plug in
Your pipeline, your rules
I work inside your templates, naming and folder structure, and hand back tidy project files the next artist can open and run with.
Fully kitted out
I hold my own licences for all the software I use and work on a powerful workstation, so I can get started on your project from day one.
Fully remote
Based in Shrewsbury and working UK hours. I slot straight into your team's calls, channels and review tools.
Feedback-friendly
I take notes well, turn them round fast and flag technical risks early, so there are no surprises the night before delivery.
Booking me
Single days to multi-week bookings. Send me the dates and I'll come back with a rate and availability.
Not my thing
Character animation. Rigs, walk cycles and lip sync are best left to the specialists, and I'm happy to point you to a good one.
