My name is Ross Sneddon. I am a multi disciplined designer, working in film and animation. I work as a senior motion designer at Revenant.
After graduating in 2015, I worked for a creative agency called Whitespace for 3 and a half years. There, I worked as a graphic designer and frequently helped the motion team with animation work. I eventually moved to that team full time and decided I was going to focus on film and animation.
In 2019, I was approached by Revenant and being a big fan of their work, I moved to Glasgow and joined their team as a lead designer. The team was very small but took on ambitious projects, involving film and VFX productions. While there, it allowed me to hone my practical skills, learn 3D compositing and become much more proficient at working in larger teams. In addition to this, I took on new roles, such as art directing and designing FUI (Life Beyond Earth) for compositing into VFX films. After 3 years, I expanded my ambitions beyond the role and made the decision to look further afield.
In 2022, I made the jump to Territory Studio, where I work as a senior Motion Designer. I had the opportunity to work in the film industry and with incredible creatives who are deeply passionate about what they do. I picked up some key skillsets that further pushed my understand of creating FUI.
In 2023, I officially made the move back to Revenant and joined the team once again, as a Senior Motion Designer. It's a move that made a lot more sense for me in the end. I share a lot of similar passions with the team, as we continue to push ourselves and grow.
I find one of the best ways to better myself is to work on personal projects. With no brief or client feedback, I indulge in my biggest passions, such as storytelling. I've created a number of short films over the years, exploring different themes and ideas.
