hi,
I am a designer with a passion for telling stories through animation. I love to design styleframes and develop projects from concept through to final animation. I have worked across projects for large scale projections and events, as well as for film, television and advertising. I love working in a team and am experienced working to set briefs, while also having the ability to lead a team having worked as a motion design director and senior designer in events, broadcast, branding and advertising.

Conceptual and narrative driven projects, tempered with an eye for detailed design and typography, are what I love.
Since studying Visual Communications Design and a Masters in Animation at UTS Sydney, I have been working in motion design and animation since 2005, and have been freelancing for clients in Sydney, London, New York and the UAE since 2012.
I'm currently working remote from Northern NSW.

“Prema is an extremely talented and highly skilled creative. I admire and respect her thoughtfulness and unique design sensibility towards each and every project - whether it’s live action directing, motion graphic animation, or visualizing a compelling abstract long form for a musical piece. I was fortunate enough to have collaborated with Prema over the years, and would love to continue to do so given the opportunity. I highly recommend her.”

“Prema has been freelancing with our London office for over a year and consistently delivers creative, on brief designs that our clients praise highly (Universal, BBC and Channel 4). Her refreshing take on projects have directly resulted in more projects being placed with our team. She is a positive and creative energy to have in the room, takes direction well and offers helpful advice to her peers.”

"Prema is a fantastic compositor and is more than capable of leading an animation crew, working in either 2d or 3d. She is incredibly conscientious and works extremely hard to ensure a project is created to the highest quality. Prema is calm, skilled and assertive which makes her a valuable member of any crew, particularly on a stressful job. She works thoroughly and collaboratively, producing beautiful work both by herself and as part of a team.”

"Prema approaches every project with passion and has a broad skillset across C4D, After Effects, Photoshop and Illustrator that would be enviable to any broadcast designer. Prema sees no project as a challenge and often comes to a visual resolution that is conceptual and inspired. Prema worked on countless award winning spots at FOX8."
