Courtney Brewer, Animator/Designer
I am a storyteller by nature I feel the boundless passion for exploring imagination in collaboration. I thrive in fast paced environments built on story, I strive for strong communication skills and organization in my work. I hold a high level of detail in what I do, and take pride in the final product.
What does being a creative mean to me?
Being an creative is the thrill of taking a static idea and breathing life into dynamic ideas, the boundless passion for exploring imagination, the ability to evoke emotions within the audience while creating strong empathic connections to characters, and the drive to push the boundaries of both technology and storytelling. My dream is to give people joy through story.
As an Animation Production Manager at Crafty Apes, I oversaw the planning, coordination, and delivery of high-quality animation for various projects, including films such as Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, The Creator, Violent Night, etc., and episodics such as The Last of Us Season 1, Shadow and Bone Season 2, The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live, among others. I have a deep knowledge of Autodesk Shotgun as I used that as the main production management software, alongside Microsoft Office and Google Applications. I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts in animation from Savannah College of Art and Design, and a certificate in character animation from Animation Mentor.
With over 2.5 years of combined experience as a freelance 3D animator and animator at Crafty Apes, I have worked on several independent and collaborative tasks, such as creating a promo for Run Totti Run, and animating for Little Fan, a short film that premiered in 2023. At Crafty Apes, I animated for projects such as Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special and Vol 3., The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live, among others. I am passionate about animation and visual effects, and I enjoy working with talented and creative teams to bring stories to life.
I am currently studying in the Themed Experience master program at the University of Central Florida to further broaden my creative expertise and continue building upon my love of storytelling and passion for sharing that with the world.
