Aoibh Foynes
Available for work !
I am a 24-year-old 2D designer, illustrator, and animator. In my final year of study at IADT, I put my time into directing my own animated short titled "BIG HEAD", where I gained invaluable insight into the animation pipeline and cultivated a deep love for the animation medium. Since graduating in 2021, I have been polishing my skills to hopefully work in the industry as a designer due to my love of creating vibrant and bold animated worlds with other brilliant and creative minds! Over the last six months, I have worked on some live-action projects, one of which is named "Dragon of Shandon," which was screened in multiple film festivals around Ireland such as the Fastnet Film Festival. In september I will be completing my MA in Film and Screen Media from UCC, where I learned valuable live-action production and academic writing skills. While working on live-action projects has been fun, it's made me realise that working within a team in the animation industry is where I want to be.
