welcome!

My name is Shahaf, I’m 31 years old.

I always liked to draw, since I was little I used to draw everywhere I could, so my uncle (an artist) took me to his studio and taught me how to draw, paint and sculpture. By the time I was 13 I illustrated a character for the “Israel Cancer Association” commercial. Right there, I knew Motion Graphics and Animation is what I wanted to do.  
The time passed and in high school I studied arts and graphic design and on my leisure time I Drew on surfboards.
After High School I joined an Air Force program, where I studied machine engineering and at the age of 20 I joined the military and served as an F-16 Mechanic. I volunteered for 4 years as a manager at "I.V.O.W association" ( a Canadian non profit charity for Israeli Victims of War) working with kids and with the jewish community in Toronto and in Montréal.

In 2013 I started to study at Shenkar’s College Visual Communication department, where I study Typography, Branding, Web Design and Specialize in Animation, Motion graphics and UX\UI.

In 2016 I went to an internship in River Island, London.
specialized in motion graphics for social media and professional retouching.

I've also collaborated with Greenhouse studio and illustrated characters for a primetime tv show.

In July 2017 I've graduated the Visual Communication department at Shenkar college of engineering and design.

I’ve working at BabyFirst, an american TV channel for toddlers as a graphic, ui designer, animator and illustrator.

I’ve worked at GlassesUSA.com as the head of video and motion graphics department.

As a Designer I always seek new things to learn and expand my knowledge, further pushing myself and achieving higher goals.
I'm very passionate about interacting with people and moving them through the different platforms.

I'm currently living in San Francisco, I’m a MA student of 3D animation at Academy of Art University.
