Michael Relth describes himself as a freelance illustrator and animator, but that’s just him being the modest guy he is. Michael is a multi-talented artist, with experience in character design, 2D animation, 3D animation, visual development, and storytelling. He has created animations for clients like Procreate, Riot Games, MTV VMA’s, Disney, Netflix, and more. In recent years, Michael has decided to shift his focus toward visual development and creating children’s books, and his debut book, “Picture Book by Dog“, was released in September 2020! In this interview, Michael gives his tips on pitching stories, talks about how his art style has transformed and evolved over the years, and why he loves being a freelance artist!
