@aakanskhaborthakur
I create animated films, visual stories, and audience-focused content from concept through final production.
GermanyWhat I'm looking for
I've independently directed animated short films including PARMANU and BOXONTO, both officially selected by international film festivals. I take projects from concept and scriptwriting through storyboarding, animation, editing, sound integration, and final delivery.
At Berlin School of Business and Innovation, I've created character designs, backgrounds, concept art, animation sequences, and promotional assets. I also contributed background artwork and animation to Alp and Pine.
Alongside animation, I create nonprofit and educational content for Brickers Foundation and Long COVID Foundation, and I've published five books. I use Adobe Creative Suite, Blender, Procreate, and Affinity tools to bring stories and communications to life.
