Hi, my name is Ryan Glovka and I'm a Senior 3D character animator based in Minnesota.

I have always been passionate about art, comedy and film which led me to pursue an exciting career in animation. I have worked on feature films, animated shorts, console games and mobile games. I love entertaining audiences by bringing characters to life!

I have worked the past 15 years as a professional animator working for studios such as Blue Sky Studios, Sony Imageworks, Supercell, Reel FX, Choice Provisions, Infinite World, Blizzard and Monster Games.

In 1998 I graduated from the University of St. Thomas with a degree in studio art and graphic design. After working for years as a graphic artist, I changed paths to pursue character animation. In 2008 I graduated from Animation Mentor and have been a professional animator ever since.

When I'm not working, I enjoy spending time with my family and my other hobbies such as travel, golf, drawing, Star Wars, creating junk sculptures…and Dad jokes!
