Tori Artworks
Hello, I'm Tori! I am an independent 2D animator and After Effects VFX artist. Currently, I work in Thailand’s 2D animation industry as a compositor and collaborate on various indie projects for VTubers. I started my drawing journey as a child, and around 2022, I discovered After Effects, which led me to shift my workflow and incorporate it more into my art.
I'm known for my ability to create captivating VFX that seamlessly blends with frame-by-frame animation. I enjoy sharing behind-the-scenes content on my X/Twitter, and many people have asked me to create a tutorial on these techniques — so here I am!
This course will be beneficial for any animator who wants to elevate their work with creative compositing techniques, as well as VFX artists eager to learn innovative ways to make their VFX stand out.
