Hi! I'm Tyson Ibele and I'm currently a 24 year old animator living in Vancouver, Canada.

I was originally introduced to 3d animation by a great freeware program call Anim8or way back in 2000. Soon after, I discovered a program called 3d Studio Max and I have been working with it up to this point. I now work for a company called MAKE.

So, I have several years experience with 3d Studio Max, and am familiar with everything from modelling to texturing to animation.

Due to the nature of the field, I am also very familiar with programs such as Adobe After Effects and Adobe Photoshop, and have used both programs relatively extensively.

I've won several awards for my work so far, and they include:

-Marion Drysdale Awards 2001 (video/animation) 1st place regional level

-Marion Drysdale Awards 2001 (video/animation) 1st place provincial level

-Skills Canada 2002 (character animation) 2nd place regional level

-Skills Canada 2003 (character animation) 2nd place regional level
