Software Developer turned Animation Producer
My name is Tim Keller. I’m an Animation Producer at Sunrise Productions. I live in Cape Town with my wife, son, and two beagles. My background is in Computer Science, having completed my Bachelor of Science in CompSci and Psychology at UCT. I spent several years working as a software engineer, then as a software development manager, before moving into producing animation. I’ve had a lifelong passion for technology, media and the creative arts. Animation sits squarely at the intersection of these passions… and I still can’t believe I get to make cartoons for a living.
Projects
