Hi, I’m Gustaf Lindström, an award-winning Director, CG Artist, and Animation Generalist based in London.

 

Whether working on commercials, music videos, or live productions, visual storytelling is where I make waves (with stunning procedural ripple effects, obviously).

 

Speaking of which, my debut 3D animated short film Plankton snagged multiple awards on the 2020 short film circuit, including the Academy Award-qualifying Best Animated Short at the Interfilm Berlin Film Festival.

 

Since then, I have produced multiple animated shorts for the Disney-owned FX Networks, some of which were their official selection for the Primetime Emmys and the Annie Awards.
