SKILLS
ABOUT CASEY SANBORN
As a versatile and creative design professional, I bring over a decade of experience in character design, production art, and leadership within the animation, children\'s publishing, and gaming industries. My expertise spans from leading teams on high-profile projects such as DreamWorks Animation’s \'Mighty Monster Wheelies\' and \'Not Quite Narwhal\', to creating interactive learning game art for educational purposes. With a deep knowledge of concept design, illustration, and 3D modeling, I excel in developing production-friendly designs from initial concept to final color and texture, while ensuring that all assets align with project goals. I am also passionate about mentoring teams, providing art direction, and fostering collaborative environments. I am a creative problem-solver with strong communication, organizational, and time management skills, capable of delivering high-quality results on time and within budget. Prior to my focus on animation, I illustrated over thirty electronic children\'s books and activity kits for top clients such as Disney, DreamWorks, Marvel, Sesame Street Workshop, Sony, HIT Entertainment, and the National Football League. I earned my B.F.A. in Illustration from the Rhode Island School of Design and achieved a Diploma with Honors in 3D Animation and Visual Effects from Vancouver Film School.
