About Rishi
I teach 3D animation, from absolute beginner fundamentals to advanced character work, drawing on 6+ years of industry experience at studios including Studio Eeksaurus, Technicolor (Mikros Animation), Citrus Ink Studios, and Gallic Entertainment, across ads, films, TV, and games. I hold a Post-Graduate Diploma in Advanced 3D Animation and VFX from Vancouver Film School.
Beyond the craft, I care about helping students build real confidence with the fundamentals, the same way I'd mentor a junior animator on a real production. Whether you're a complete beginner or looking to sharpen specific skills, I bring the same attention to your learning that I'd bring to a professional project.

Cartoony 3D Animation Class — Maya & Blender Friendly
Master the art of cartoony 3D animation from the ground up! Whether you're a complete beginner or looking to refine your skills, this course is designed to take you through a structured learning path that builds strong animation fundamentals.
BEGINNER LEVEL:
- Learn the principles of animation through hands-on practice
- Animate various objects (bouncing balls, pendulums, etc.) to understand timing, spacing, squash & stretch, and other core concepts
- Apply fundamentals to character animation with walk cycles, run cycles, and jump cycles
- Understand how animation principles translate from objects to character movement
INTERMEDIATE LEVEL:
Once you've mastered the basics, dive deeper into proper body mechanics, facial animation, and acting. Learn to give your characters personality and emotion through performance-driven animation that tells a story.
ADVANCED LEVEL:
Take your animations to the next level with cartoony exaggeration techniques including multiples, smears, advanced timing, and stylized movement that makes your work stand out.
Note: Intermediate and Advanced levels will be discussed and offered based on your individual progress and skill level, ensuring you're always learning at the right pace.
Software: Both Maya and Blender are supported. Work with whichever software you're comfortable with!

Note: this course covers 3D animation only. If a student wants to explore adjacent skills (like rigging, modeling, or the whole 3D production pipeline), that's a separate conversation with its own scope and rate, discussed and agreed before we start.
