Character Animator
Story Artist
I am a Character Animator at Pixar. I started my career 12 years ago at Illumination Mac Guff working on movies like The Lorax, Despicable Me 2, Minions, The Secret Life of Pets, Sing and Despicable Me 3. I joined Sony Pictures Imageworks in 2017 to work on the Academy Award-winning Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. I also animated on The Willoughbys and was a Lead Animator at Animal Logic on the upcoming DC League of Super-Pets. I'm now working on Lightyear.
I always have been interested in storytelling, graphic novels and drawing. It was actually what led me into animation. I would like to be closer to the story department to explore another aspect of the creativity on animated movies as a Storyboard Artist.
In my portfolio, you would find some of my early drawings, my Japanese manga and my storyboard exercises from The Animation Collaborative Introduction to Visual Storytelling and Advanced Visual Storytelling classes with Austin Madison.
Thank you for reading me and for visiting my portfolio!
Eddy Okba.
