I am Kenny Lira, junior animator and a graduate in Animation, Digital Art, and Multimedia. I specialize in 2D animation, covering pre-production, production, and post-production stages. My strongest areas include background design, cleaning, and compositing, along with skills in video editing and some experience with 3D elements, particularly texturing. Throughout my academic and professional journey, I have designed and painted backgrounds, creatively collaborated on character design and research, and managed all areas of production for a hybrid 2D animation short film. I led a team of 15 people, serving as director, producer, cleaner, and compositor, demonstrating my teamwork, leadership, creativity, adaptability, and problem-solving skills.
