Hi, my name is Tom Donnelly

I am an animation/vfx production assistant in London looking to learn all I can about the exciting and dynamic world of animation and VFX production.

I have been working for Jellyfish Pictures until recently as FOH and production assistant in their VFX department working on exciting projects like Dogman and The Rig season 2.

I am trained in 3d animation and am also competent as a 2d artist and illustrator which is a personal passion and in this genre, I design games.

I started in the industry working as a runner at No 8 VFX and have experience in both post production and production pipelines, work flows and softwares. I have gained substantial experience in all aspects of being a production assistant in a busy studio environment. and was lucky enough to work on a BBC Arts documentary for The Brewery VFX which was both challenging and extremely interesting, where I got to improve my 2d motion graphics knowledge.
I am eager to work and approach every situation with a positive can do attitude and I am friendly, passionate and have a deep enthusiasm for the industry.
I have had my short films shown at over 14 film festivals all over the world and was nominated for Best Young Director in 2018.!

I am constantly keeping up to date with training and softwares relating to the industry and am currently training in blender, 2d toon boom harmony and have some experience working with maya and unreal engine while working at Jellyfish.
