About me

Hi! I’m Kabo Lam, a freelance motion designer with over 15 years of experience in the animation & advertising industry. I combine strong visual storytelling with a clear, structured approach. I speak Dutch and English.

My experience spans both independent and commercial projects, giving me a strong understanding of different media styles and the advertising industry. Whether I work independently or as part of a team, I focus on clarity, quality, and momentum.

I enjoy challenging myself with the technical side of social campaigns as well as story-driven explainer animations, especially when I can fully lean into character animation or work with Essential Graphics.

When I’m not animating, you’ll probably find me gaming, reading a good book, or relaxing on the couch with my partner and our very large orange cat.
