My name is Edwin Senkumba, I am a freelance animator and 3D artist based in Uganda with over ten years of experience in media production, animation, and graphic design. I have contributed to projects across print, television, and digital platforms for clients including JESA Farm Dairy, Bank of Uganda, NATURA (Modern Dairy Burundi), NICE House of Plastics, and Uganda Batteries Limited.
As a self-taught creative, I am driven by curiosity and a commitment to continuous improvement. My expertise blends technical precision with creative innovation, allowing me to bring complex ideas to life through animation and 3D design. I am equally comfortable leading projects independently or collaborating within creative teams, ensuring that each output aligns with client objectives and brand standards.
I am highly proficient in Blender, DaVinci Resolve, Affinity Suite, Krita, and OpenToonz, and competent in Maya, Adobe Creative Suite, Cinema 4D, and ZBrush. This range allows me to adapt to diverse project requirements and deliver solutions tailored to each client’s vision. Additionally, I am experienced in managing remote projects and meeting tight deadlines without compromising quality.
I welcome opportunities to discuss your creative needs and explore how my skills can support your projects. Please feel free to reach out to connect.
