About

Michael Mellor 3D Character Artist and Animator | Borrego Springs, CA

Specializing in character design, advanced rigging, and environment art.

 

My passion is creating compelling, hope-filled experiences through beautiful animation. My faith in Christ inspires this vision and the work I create.

 

My work spans stylized 3D animated short films, freelance animation, and interactive experiences. I built Adventure Beyond, a VR platform I run for museums and visitor centers, bringing experiences like David’s VR Adventure and The Kingdom Knight directly to their guests.

 

Most Used Software:

Blender, Unreal Engine, Affinity Photo, DaVinci Resolve, and other animation, sculpting, and design programs across Mac and Windows.

 

Work Experience Prior to Freelance:

Sight and Sound Theatres in Lancaster, PA – responsible for programming and operation of CNC mills and lasers, 3D printers, and other fabrication machines. Some prop making and post processing.

 

Rollem Films:

It’s my families last name backwards, Mellor. Growing up my siblings and I made lots of shorts and fan-films and our Dad had the idea for the name Rollem Films. Hopefully one day we can get the gang back tother!
