Ryan Boyle

Director, Motion Designer, and Illustrator

Redmond, WA, USA
I am an artist recently re-located to Seattle with over 10 years of experience who loves to work. I've worn many hats in the creative world and I'm a firm believer in making myself valuable to employers and therefore I'm constantly working to keep my skill set up to date.

I currently work in both 3D and 2D productions tools and I have both game and film experience. My work ranges from creating animations and motion graphics to directing and editing commercials and trailers. I've also created ui designs and marketing material for several iPhone games and web apps.

Some of my clients include Microsoft, Disney/ABC Studios, the Black Eyed Peas, yU+co, Thinkwell Design and Productions, Gradient Effects, and Inhance Digital.
