Deniz Şeker
3D Animator & Game Developer
I'm a senior game developer specialising in animation and 3D visuals, with 8+ years in the game industry. I work in Blender, Godot, Unity and Adobe Photoshop, with a track record of delivering high-quality stylised work and leading teams to success. I've been freelancing since 2018 and teaching private Blender lessons since 2019, and I'm always after unique animation styles and innovative, collaborative projects.
