About Samuel
Hi, I’m Samuel. I’ve spent the last 17 years working as an animator across film, games, and virtual production, and 5 of those years deeply focused on motion capture technology.
I started teaching because I love helping people bring their ideas to life, especially when they think animation is too complex or out of reach. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced artist, I enjoy breaking down technical workflows and showing how animation is actually a language anyone can learn with the right guidance.
I’ve worked on major productions, mentored students, and trained professionals. My sessions are structured but fun, always personal to your pace and interests. If you’re curious, committed, or just ready to try, I’d love to help you grow your skills frame by frame.

Each lesson I teach is hands-on, encouraging, and built around your learning goals. I focus on storytelling through movement, helping students not just animate, but understand why characters move the way they do.
I start by getting to know where you are in your creative journey. From there, I design each class to suit your pace, whether that’s learning how to rig a character, polish a walk cycle, build a stop-motion project, or capture performance using motion capture data.
I blend real-world industry knowledge with approachable, step-by-step guidance. We use professional software like Maya, Blender, and Unreal Engine; not just to follow tools, but to create with intention.
My lessons often include:
Short creative warm-ups to build animation instincts
Deep dives into core principles like timing, spacing, and acting
Technical guidance tailored to software or pipelines you want to master
Visual feedback and iterative reviews to help you improve with confidence
Whether you're a young learner exploring animation for the first time or a professional working on a portfolio piece, the sessions are structured, inspiring, and designed to help you express your own creative voice.

I learned a lot from Sam's animation classes — it was definitely worth the time! He explained everything very clearly, from how different tools work to techniques that make things easier and more efficient. His teaching style made complex topics much easier to understand. Highly recommended!
I’m completely new to animation, and working with Sam has made the whole process a lot less overwhelming. He’s clear, patient, and doesn’t overcomplicate things. Highly recommend him!
