“Jessie is a very self motivated worker and skilled animator. He shows great enthusiasm and zeal for his work - and he has great skill as an animator. His creativity is shown very much through his passion for animation and the ideas that he puts out. His understanding of timing, weight, balance, posing and the essential principles of animation make him an excellent animator and I would highly recommend him to anyone! He takes criticism very well and gives great constructive feedback. His communication skills and friendly nature would make him a great asset to any team.”
