Me!
About
Hello!
I’m Kareena Bhatia, and I’m pursuing a B.F.A. in Computer Animation, along with a minor in Business of Art and Design and Art History at Ringling College of Art and Design.
I am currently Co-Directing my thesis film, a two-minute animated medieval comedy, which is slated to be completed in May 2025! I focus on Character Animation and Production Management, but I am trained as a 3D generalist and have experience working in 3D modeling/texturing, rigging, lighting, and compositing.
When I’m not animating, you can find me exploring trails with my dog, Kayla, or practicing my impromptu DIY haircutting skills. Some bucket list items for me are to skydive, purchase a toy of a character I animated, and eat at a McDonald's in every country I visit to try their unique menu items.
I’m excited about the journey ahead, feel free to reach out if you want to chat!
