¡Hola! I'm Randy Morales. I'm an award winner freelance 2D motion designer, animator and illustrator based in Charlotte, NC. I was born and raised in the outskirts of Santo Domingo, in the Caribbean Island of Quisqueya, Dominican Republic. There I spent my childhood drawing with charcoal on the walls of abandoned houses, making fires and roaming in the deep tropical forest under the scorching sun. When I'm not doing art, you can find me bombing down a mountain on a bike or playing punk rock chords in my studio.
You can reach me at hello@randymorales.com or schedule a meeting. Even if you just want to connect and get to know each other for 10 minutes. I'm always happy to meet other creatives.
You can hire me for:
• Animation Direction
• 2D Motion Design
• Cel Animation
• Character Design & Animation
• Art Direction
• Editorial Illustration
