# Gergely Wootsch > Gergely Wootsch is an animation director and designer based in Barcelona, working across animation, design, and 3D. I'm a designer and animation director based in Barcelona, with over a decade of experience in the film and television industry. I love making moving images, telling stories, and figuring out how things work. I've directed at Studio AKA for Netflix and Apple TV+, and contributed design, animation, and 3D work to projects large and small.
