Tiffany Tam

Animation, FX, Illustration, Production Management


Hi! I'm Tiffany, a Toronto-based animator and illustrator.
Welcome to my portfolio, I hope you enjoy having a look around!
I'm a life-long fan of animated shows and games, and I'm always looking for new ways to apply my skills to different mediums to create compelling stories and experiences.

Bling Bang Bang Born Seneca Anijam

I participated in a multi-animator project with some of my fellow alumni.I decided to use my original character for my part, and took inspiration from animated music videos to visually express key aspects of her character.

Traditionally-Animated Works

Hand drawn animation is my favourite to do! I grew up admiring the animation from 2d cartoons, anime, and games

"The Ballad of Skipjack & Atticus" - Production Manager / FX Animation

Production ManagerI managed a team of 15 people (including myself) to produce our 5 minute student-animated film; "The Ballad of Skipjack & Atticus". My multiple roles involved leading weekly meetings, overseeing schedules, budgeting, and communicating with helpers and hired individuals. I frequently provided feedback to our program coordinator and suggested tactics to improve productivity and team morale.The film was graciously awarded the "TAAFI Golden Ticket" at Seneca Coalesce 2024, and "Best Screenplay" at The Tombstone Film Festival 2025 in Arizona.

FX Animation LeadI was responsible for designing the look for each effect on our film, and created an FX Bible for the team to follow.We were largely inspired by both classic slapstick cartoons like looney tunes, and fire FX from modern anime.

Freelance - Fire Emblem Tarot Project

My current freelance project is illustrating Fire Emblem characters as tarot cards in collaboration with Plaque Arts.

Production Process:My client sends me ideas and/or a rough mock up of what they have in mind, and I help bring their interpretation to life while keeping in mind the limitations of the wooden material.

Illustrations - personal and commissioned work

I love trying different techniques and art styles in my illustrations to suit the character & work.
