amanda seah lives for hard shots. the harder, the better. (no, really). a visual effects master with over a decade of varied experience in animation, modeling, and tracking (her speciality) amanda can't exist in a bubble, and therefore applies her vast cultural experience as a world traveler (from singapore to china to her current home base of vancouver) to her life and work. pragmatic, practical, and practiced, Amanda, like many post-artists, is creative and solution-driven, always searching for ways to make her work (and everyone else's) easier. she cites a tedious shot of a glass container from the umbrella academy as a highlight: in an attempt to make the shot easier for compositors, she kept the object static. “now I get to make decisions,” she says. “i'm actually using my brains and that's actually working and i'm getting validated.”
current obsession: boxing 🥊 – it not only keeps my body and mind active, boxing also trains your reflexes and improve your reaction time. and, helps reduce stress and anxiety!
