About
Hi! I'm Tara.
I am an animator and production assistant specialising in motion capture editing.
I have industry experience working on a range of AAA games, films and TV productions across the whole motion capture pipeline - from on-set production shoots with actors, capture desk operations and stage volume preparations to post-production where I solve, retarget and motion edit the character data onto a variety of production rigs.
I'm passionate about developing my skills in both motion capture and key-frame animation, I love bringing characters to life and the world around them.
