Animation Supervisor

My name is Shiva Asadi, and I had the chance to perform as the animation supervisor in the "Echo" short animation. As an animation supervisor, I had the responsibility to observe the teamwork and the production procedure and make sure that the acting, animating, and color staging will meet the optimal quality standards. Apart from acting as an animation supervisor, in some specific shots, I performed as an animator as well.
